Introduction: Many schools have been asking how they can learn more about MyPortfolio and get started in using it.

There is also a link to the guidelines we as a community think should apply to these sessions.

"As the year progressed, we related specific key competencies to our learning in the classroom. We examined each key competency, discussed in groups what it would look like, and brainstormed ideas that were added to the wall chart. Evidence of success with the key competency was recorded in the students' portfolios."
