How to compile a portfolio

Article Abstract:

Students may find they are able to use a portfolio, made whilst studying, as part of their curriculum vitae when applying for jobs. Portfolios are also useful as a tool for tutors review students' work. Students must be selective on what is retained for their portfolio because too much information will limit its value. Work should be clearly dated and an explanation of why it was selected noted on the work. Each piece of work should demonstrate knowledge of a key skill. It is very important to review what is in the portfolio in order to remove work if it has been superseded.

Team virgins fear an orgy of togetherness

Article Abstract:

An examination of how tutors and universities and colleges can foster the idea amongst students that teamwork benefits everybody. Employers rate the ability to work as a team member very highly, but students, generally speaking, do not like the concept of groupwork and do not see the point of group exercises.
