Student's portfolios

Since pages in a wiki site are editable, students can use their personal pages as their portfolios. In a portfolio, students list their academic achievements (works, tests, participation in projects etc.) and reflect upon their achievements and progress along the learning path.

• Wiki profiles and portfolios of ICT students at FFLAS MSU.
