Final Project Portfolio



     Our last project for VD was about making a portfolio including all the work we've done from September onwards. This was a relatively simple project to do. The first thing we did was organize all our files into two folders, labs and projects. The PDFs and JPEGs for labs we did went into the lab folder and the same files for projects we did went into the projects folder, obviously. Next, every reflection journal we did about a lab and project were saved as PDFs and placed in the folder the reflection corresponded to. Finally, we made a read me file explaining what we learned throughout the year and the contents of the portfolio. The labs folder, projects folder, and read me were all put in one large folder, the VD Portfolio folder. The VD Portfolio folder was compressed as a zip file and submitted.
     That wasn't the only thing we did, however. We also made a PDF portfolio in Adobe Acrobat Pro. We used Acrobat previously to combine PDF files into one large file. This time we used Acrobat to make a PDF Portfolio, where files aren't necessarily combined into a single file but are integrated into a single unit. In Acrobat the integrated file names are displayed in a column on the side and when clicked on you can see said file. To create a PDF Portfolio the first thing we did in Acrobat was click create PDF under tools. We them selected multiple files and PDF portfolio. Then I added my files and organized my files into labs and projects, since PDF portfolios allow for folders unlike large files. Once all files were in I saved and submitted my PDF portfolio.
