How do I make my ePortfolio public?

There are three different privacy settings. Changing the privacy settings for one of your ePortfolios will not affect the privacy settings of any other ePortfolios you have created. 

Public ePortfolios can be found by performing an internet search. If you want to put the link to your ePortfolio on your resume, use your ePortfolio to build your internet identity, or even be featured as a model ePortfolio (and subsequently be eligible for student showcases), you must change your ePortfolio settings to 'Public'. However, it is prudent to be mindful of any sensitive information you have posted on your ePortfolio, e.g., phone numbers or home addresses. 

After logging into your ePortfolio at stonybrook.digication.com, go to the top right of the page and click on Portfolio Tools -> Settings  (pictured below)

Scroll down the page until you see Permissions (pictured below)

Under 'Permissions', click either 'Public' or  'Private Within Stony Brook University'. ePortfolios that are 'Private Within Stony Brook University' will only be viewable by other students and faculty logged into a digication account. 'Public' ePortfolios can be viewed by anyone. 

• If you are planning on using your ePortfolio on your resume or LinkedIn account, you must make set 'Permissions' to 'Public'.

When you are done changing your permissions, scroll down to the bottom left of the page and click Save.
