What Portflow is
Portflow is a student-owned learning and assessment portfolio that extends an institution’s LMS or VLE. Students can collect evidence from different learning contexts, connect it to personal or programme goals, and track progress. They can invite internal or external people to give feedback through requests and threaded comments, with attachments and recordings. Portfolios can be organized into collections and sections.
For assessment, students can create locked snapshots of selected portfolio content and submit them through an LMS assignment for review in its Grader. They can also share showcase portfolios and export portfolio contents as zipped files. Listed LMS integrations are Canvas, Brightspace, Blackboard and Moodle. Its mobile app supports photo, text, audio and video evidence, offline capture, guest mode and QR-code feedback. The maker states that Portflow is GDPR compliant, LTI Advantage certified and conforms to WCAG 2.2 level AA. Pricing is not published; the product page offers demo and contact options.
