myportfolio is an electronic portfolio application built especially for schools.

Electronic portfolios extend the traditional paper-based portfolio concept to allow digital work and achievements to be organized and presented to different audiences for different purposes. When integrated into the curriculum, electronic portfolios can be used by students to create, collate and publish material and by teachers to demonstrate their students' work, skill development, and progression towards achievement of learning outcomes.

Fully integrated with mydesktop and myclasses, myportfolio provides everything students and teachers need to create personal electronic portfolios with no need for web authoring skills or costly image-creation software.
