The portfolio

What is portfolio?

The word portfolio comes from a Latin word port meaning to move. The second syllable, folio, means paper or artifacts. Thus a portfolio is a moveable collection of papers and/or artifacts or samples.

Because people often move through several different careers, it makes sense for students and potential job seekers to compile and display work skills.

A portfolio is a collection in progress: which contains things related to training, work experience, contributions and special accomplishments. It helps to provide insight into life/work history, and is useful in planning for the future or gaining insights from past experiences.

Portfolio is a compilation of work in the semesters for a subject or course. Portfolio mainly used by artist, musician and designer where they put all their work into a files. They can refer back to the portfolio if they need to used anything inside it. We have been assigned to put all our work into potfolio, all the works since day one till the last day in our semester. There are lots of works we have done, but the problem is, i forgot where i put all those files moreover my hard disk crash a couple of days ago, the solution? go backup the data that cause me free of charge. Thanks god, i managed to recover all my data and put it in my safe place.
