In your e-portfolio, you can add all sorts of pieces of evidence. Examples of registrations 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 a saved peace of evidence. A new version of your evidence will then be created automatically. You and your teacher can also look back at previous versions of a peace of evidence. Click here to read how to edit a product.

To add a peace of evidence, follow these steps:

What can I do with the other options I see here?
You can use the Existing Content option to select evidence from a previous module. You use the Self-Reflection and Oral Feedback options if you want to add a self-reflection or register (verbal) feedback from a teacher.
Once you click on Free form content, you will see a form that you can fill in as follows:
- First, click on Edit Categories.
- Then click on Select Category to indicate:
- which category (Learning Outcome: 'IK', 'WIJ', or 'WERELD') you are recording this piece of evidence
