Overview
The ePortfolio tool, Anthology (formerly Chalk & Wire), is a web service integrated in graduate courses that stores samples of your graduate-level work in a virtual ePortfolio. This work is assessed by your instructor for set skills (known as competencies or criteria). Over time, this ePortfolio tool will show you how you progressed in those skills.
You will be prompted in your course(s) when to submit work for the ePortfolio. You will receive a score for the work. A grade will also be given for the work. The grade counts towards your course, but not the score. The score is for personal reflection. Over time, you will see how your scores progressed in each skill (more on assessment of competencies).
The following programs require an ePortfolio account:
Programs with ePortfolio Activities
Health Care Management
Leadership

Non-matriculated students who are interested in one of the above programs must complete these assignments for that program.
If your program requires an account and has ePortfolio activities, see below about activating your account, accessing your ePortfolio, and getting help.
