What is ePortfolio?
• Showcase your accomplishments

progress• Receive feedback on

Why Build an ePortfolio?
• Eportfolio.pace.edu• If you forget this site,
you can find it using the A-Z index on the Pace website, & there is also a tab in Blackboard

• Any post can be removed from your page by clicking the red box at the upper right hand side of the post
• We do not suggest removing the “Course Listing” box, or the “My Pages” box. “My Pages” is an easy way to navigate through your site. “Course Listing” is automatically on your page, & it shows every class you’ve ever taken at Pace University. If you accidentally delete this, just create a new text box & title it “Course Listing.”
