Written Reflection

If the roots are poisoned…the fruit is too

  • I have genuinely appreciated the opportunity to read everyone’s perspectives. As someone who has just recently joined the faculty here at PSU, I am heartened by the sense of care that I see reflected in the work shared during this module. While we may not all agree, everyone seems

Written Reflection

Self ascribed techno-curmudgeon

  • I waited to post my goal for these two weeks until I was able to engage with some of the materials and see how others are approaching things. I think my main goal is to see if I can fall back in love (or like) with technologies and their

Stop Five: Exploring Your Portfolio

This page is your personal workspace in Design Forward. Whenever you complete an activity in a module, it will be posted here. In addition, you can add portfolio items at any time. At the bottom of the page, you will see a gray bar with options to add images, files, videos, text reflections, or workbook pages. 

On the right, you will see your most recent comments and annotations as well as any questions you’ve asked. 

Your portfolio lives outside of any individual module — it is available across your entire Design Forward experience. If you click on the Participants link  you will be able to see everyone else participating in a module and visit their portfolios. They can visit yours as well. 

Take some time to explore the options in your portfolio; you don’t need to add anything at this time. When you’re done click the “Back to the Map” button.

At the end of this stop in the Orientation journey, you will have 

  • Understand how content is added to your portfolio
  • Learned that your portfolio is available across all the DF modules you participate in.
