Would they prefer a physical scrapbook or do they want to build up a digital portfolio? &nbsp;Whatever they choose this will be the 'hub' of the work they create.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"video-content\">\n<div class=\"iframe-container\">\n   <iframe src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/220617513\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"true\"> <\/iframe>\n  <\/div>\n<div class=\"description\">\n    Have a look at what these two options look like in practice. We've found the digital portfolios to be our favourite as they enable us to access them at all times with our learners and share with their family. Of course you can always do both options - create a physical one and the take photos and upload into a digital portfolio.\n  <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"document-every-step-of-the-way\">\n<h2> Document every step of the way! <\/h2>\n<div class=\"image-content\">\n<figure>\n   <a href=\"https:\/\/www.process.st\/templates\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/siJFGQbpDjq0sBCqZ9hOWQ-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"We've found many of our learners love having the chance to take photographs and so with a bit of kind, specific and helpful critique this is a communication skill they are developing without even realising it!\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> <img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.process.st\/templates\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/siJFGQbpDjq0sBCqZ9hOWQ-scaled.jpg\" \/> <\/a><figcaption>\n     We've found many of our learners love having the chance to take photographs and so with a bit of kind, specific and helpful critique this is a communication skill they are developing without even realising it!<br \/>\n   <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"text-content\">\n<p>As your child is getting stuck into their project, encourage them to take photos of each stage or document it yourself.<\/p>\n<p>This will produce a photo story of their progress throughout the project. Remember to get creative and have fun with these photos and use it as a time to improve your child's or your own photography skills.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Over time your child's portfolio will start to really highlight&nbsp;their interests or 'switches' they have explored&nbsp;and discovered. If I look at my own son's he has moved from photography, through filmmaking into graphic design, electronics and engineering and woodwork. He is now going back to editing exploring special effects software. My daughter has dived into sewing, book art, filmmaking whilst continuing to develop her real passion, writing.<\/p>\n<h5><\/h5>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"text-content\">\n<h5>Using Google Photos to manage your photos.<\/h5>\n<p>Google Photos is a wonderful piece of software. It's unlimited storage capacity and ability to share digitally makes it the perfect digital portfolio.
