You can upload all kinds of products to your register. Examples of products include: a sketch, a drawing, a reflection or evaluation, a collage, a model, a piece of work, a poster, a customer or stakeholder interview, a prepared presentation, or a report.
This article explains how to do this.
You can also edit an uploaded product. A new version of your product will then be created automatically. You and your teacher can also look back at previous versions of a product. Click here to read how to edit a product.

Upload a product into you register
To upload a product, follow these steps:
- In the Brightspace course environment for your module, click on eJournal in the green navigation bar and click on the register where you want to upload product.
- On the left-hand side, click on the + to add new content.

What can I do with the other options I see here?
You should only use the Verbal feedback option if you are recording feedback you have received during a coaching session.
You will also find the forms for the review and decision-making moments here. For more information, see ‘How do you prepare for a balance- or decision moment?’ and How do you enter a balance moment in your register?
Once you click on Use Entry Template, you will see a form that you can fill in as follows:
- First, click on Edit categories.
- Then click on Select category to indicate the following three things:
- for which learning pathway (or learning pathways; in Dutch 'leerlijn') you are recording this entry.
You can select multiple learning pathways if this is applicable. - for which project
- for which phase of the project: inventory analysis (oa), preliminary design (so), provisional design (vo), final design (do).
- for which learning pathway (or learning pathways; in Dutch 'leerlijn') you are recording this entry.
- Click on the cross to close the selection window.
You will now see the selected category or categories at the top of the form.
- Enter the title of your product.
- In the text box, provide an explanation of your product and add images. Do this as follows:
Add an image
You can add an image directly in the text field. To do this, follow these steps:
- In the editor, click where you want to place the image.
- Click Insert/edit image. A new window will appear.
- Click Upload.
- Drag the image file to this area, or click Browse for an image to select the file.
- Click Save to insert the image.
- If your product includes technical drawings or a video, you will have selected the other form at the top in step 3, and you will now see fields for uploading the file containing the drawings or video. Do this as follows:
Add a file
- To add technical drawings, click Add file in the ‘Upload your technical drawings as PDFs’ field, then click Upload from my computer.
Then select the file you want to add.
Want to add another file? Repeat this step.
If your product is a video, you should add it to your register as follows:
Add a video
- At Saxion, you never submit a video as a file; you always use Saxion's Kaltura video platform for this. First, follow these instructions: How do I add a video to Kaltura?
Do this in a new tab in your browser so that the tab with your product upload, remains open.
- Click on the title of the video in MyMedia.
- Click on Share below the video.
- Click on Embed.
- Click the ‘Copy embed’ button at the bottom right of the video.
- In your browser, go back to the tab where you are uploading your product.
- Paste (Ctrl V) the copied code into the video field.
You will only see the video after you click Submit to save the registration.
Submit the registration
- Once you have added all the components for this registration, click Submit at the bottom. If you forgot to select categories at the top of the form, you will be asked to do so. Make sure you select a category for the project, the design phase and at least one learning pathway.
Edit a product (saving a new version)
If you edit a registration after you have submitted it, a new version of that registration will be created automatically. You and your teacher can also continue to view the previous version(s).
