ePortfolio Homepage

When navigating to an ePortfolio, you will first access the homepage. The homepage shows a summary of recent activity in the ePortfolio. It can also display ‘showcased work’, which are assessment items that students have submitted through Schoolbox and have chosen to display in their ePortfolio. There is also a list of the student’s subjects.
