What is Canvas ePortfolio?

The Canvas ePortfolio tool allows students to display specific submissions and experiences from multiple courses in one location. This provides opportunities to draw connections between coursework and reflect on the learning process and outcomes. ePortfolios can be set to private so only ERAU users can view the content, or public so students can share their work with future employers as well.

Opportunities

  • 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. Your ePortfolio can be shared by making it public and copying the link for assignment submissions, forwarding it to employers, etc.
  • Showcase professional-quality work for prospective employers

Considerations

  • Your ePortfolio can only be private or public - there is no link to share with a private visibility
  • You can't begin to add pages until you've established your sections. You can't move pages between sections, so it is critical that you have sections organized first
