We have online support forums for ZEN Portfolios to help you develop your e-portfolio with as much assistance as possible. There is a free basic forum and also a free, online forum for educators and administrators to share best practices in implementing e-portfolio projects.
We also have premium forums. For these online support forums you will need to be a member of one of our partner institutions. To sign up, just log in with your ZEN Portfolios account and then click on the “Request invitation” tab. There is the ZEN Portfolio Premium Support Forum and also a Web Tools Support Forum that will help support you on Web tools, some of which you may want to use as part of developing your e-portfolio (e.g. Google Analytics for tracking who is visiting your site, Flickr Creative Commons for accessing great photos you can use for free as long as you attribute the source, RSS, etc.).
One of the great benefits of using ZEN Portfolios is that it is WordPress-based and makes it easy to integrate social media and Web 2.0 tools. This Web Tools forum will be helpful while you build your e-portfolio as you may want to get help on related ocial media tools like Twitter, Facebook, and LinkedIn. In all, more than 100 of the best Web 2.0 tools are covered. We focus on the tools that are mainly free or have free versions.
