Portflow
The digital portfolio for AUAS students
Portflow is your own portfolio where you collect, exchange, and share feedback and evidence of your progress throughout your studies with anyone you choose. In Portflow, you can receive feedback from fellow students, lecturers, and other professionals within and outside AUAS, enabling mutual learning. This promotes an active and engaged learning environment where you are encouraged to push your boundaries and strive for continuous improvement.
With Portflow, you can reflect on your learning process, set goals, and track the progress you have made. This allows you to identify your strengths and areas for improvement, empowering you to make better choices and have more control over your studies.
You will discuss the use of the portfolio with your lecturer and make agreements. Before you start using Portflow, you will receive training. Instructional materials are provided below, and you can contact your lecturer with any questions.
