Portfolio. What is it and how is it used?

A portfolio is a collection of evidence.  It documents the creativity, understanding and knowledge of students; its elaboration also helps students to reflect on their own work/progress and be responsible for their own learning. Portfolios should be well organized (table of contents, explanations, dates) and should be checked regularly by the teacher.
