Canvas – About Portfolios

Students can create learner-driven showcase portfolios consisting of your best work from a course or academic program. Portfolios can highlight course projects, provide evidence of competencies, and be exported as a PDF, HTML, or external link for easy sharing. Also, showcase portfolios can be used to…

• Create an online educational journal for reflection
• Create an online site that can be turned in as an online Assignment
• Demonstrate mastery of course Outcomes
• Share your best work from multiple courses
• Showcase professional-quality work for prospective employers

Along with being able to create showcase portfolios, instructors can also create evaluation portfolios.  Evaluation portfolios can be used to track a learner’s progress over time based on course assignments or established competencies.
