\u00a0Lets take a look at a few images of what the student portfolios look like. \u00a0Remember, the students build these on their own.<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-867 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/technology\/2014\/03\/14\/student-portfolios-a-tool-for-every-student\/portfolio2\/#main'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/technology\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2014\/03\/portfolio2-150x150.png\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-869\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-869'>\n\t\t\t\tDisplaying PDF Lab Reports\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/technology\/2014\/03\/14\/student-portfolios-a-tool-for-every-student\/portfolio1\/#main'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/technology\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2014\/03\/portfolio1-150x150.png\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-868\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-868'>\n\t\t\t\tPortfolio overview\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/technology\/2014\/03\/14\/student-portfolios-a-tool-for-every-student\/portfolio3\/#main'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/technology\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2014\/03\/portfolio3-150x150.png\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-870\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-870'>\n\t\t\t\tNotice the comments on the bottom.\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A little known secret in iLearn is the ePortfolio tool. \u00a0This tool is built using software called Mahara and is fully integrated with iLearn. \u00a0This tool allows students to collect, store, and display their work. \u00a0They can form groups and more to share information, create pages, and connect with other students. \u00a0They are able to &#8230; <a title=\"Student Portfolios &#8211; A tool for every student\" class=\"read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/technology\/2014\/03\/14\/student-portfolios-a-tool-for-every-student\/\" aria-label=\"Read more about Student Portfolios &#8211; A tool for every student\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"generate_page_header":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-867","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-new-category"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/technology\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/867","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/technology\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/technology\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/technology\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/technology\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=867"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/technology\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/867\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/technology\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=867"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/technology\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=867"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/technology\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=867"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
