Dear Faculty,

The CUNY Learning Management Systems Team has announced that the Portfolio module has been activated in Brightspace.

What is the Portfolio Tool and what is it used for?

Brightspace Portfolio is a tool that empowers learners of all ages to independently capture evidence of learning. Learners can maintain their digital portfolio year after year, as they progress through their learning journey.

Brightspace Portfolio can:

Create learner-centered digital portfolios
Use age-appropriate modes of the mobile app to collect evidence of learning
Document process and growth
Provide formative assessments and real-time feedback
Record audio and video reflections about a learner’s work
Use Brightspace Portfolio year-over-year to reflect a learner’s growth and showcase their work
Ensure learner data is secure and private
Share evidence of learning with parents and guardians by using Brightspace Parent & Guardian

Ok, now how does one use the tool?

This Tool is available to students and can be accessed by clicking on their name in the upper right, then “My Portfolio”.

Detailed instructions can be found at Using Brightspace Portfolio for higher education and corporate learning – Brightspace
