Compiling a Portfolio

Today's reading was about making a portfolio for artists and such. Why create a portfolio? Well some reasons are to create a record of your writing, organize your research, and even to just explore you literacy. You can include several different things in a portfolio. These include drafts, source materials, responses, in-class writings, etc.

There are two main portfolios. One is paper portfolios. You can use a two pocket folder or something of the sort and just find all of your papers and work and put it in there neatly organized and filed. To help you can create a main page which shows where all papers are at. The other portfolio is an online portfolio. This can include a home page and have links to the contents of your work. If you look on pg 228 of The Norton Field Guide to Writing, it shows a helpful table showing you what to put on your website.
