ePortfolio
An ePortfolio is a collection of work and reflections stored digitally and made available on the Web. It is a place to showcase your curricular and extra curricular activity while here at Wagner College. It is your "Home Page" to keep forever and mark your history. There are two suggested outlines to use for your Portfolio;
One is through the "Experience" page offered through "Academic Advisement" and the other is through Wagnerpedia.
Here is a Template to use for easy editing.

Student Testimonials
"It gave me the oppotunity to examine my own career goals and ambitions for life."
"The best part of creating the ePortfolio was instead of the teacher doing everything for us, they directed us step by step, and worked with us individually."
"The best thing was finding out more about myself and learning to be more open."
"Now I have all my work in one place."
- Special thanks to LaGuardia Community College for leading the way in the development of ePortfolios amongst college communities.
