Good Practices
- For tenure portfolios keep your folder structure simple (i.e. One main folder within that folder create a sub-folder for each criterion). This way you only need to share the main folder with the reviewers and they will have access to all your sub-folders.
- Put directions for viewing documents into an index page that is emailed to all reviewers of your portfolio.
Key Outcomes
- Having content in OneDrive allows you to share content more easily and securely.
- Sharing and collaboration on documents with colleagues, administrators, and students can be done on both laptops or tablets.
