How do I push an item from my ePortfolio?

Updated on

Pushing is used to send a copy of an item to a recipient. The recipient becomes the owner of the copy and can thus use and edit the item. This won't affect the item in your ePortfolio. This manual will also explain where to find your push history and how to push multiple items at once.

To push, you first need to have added an item to your ePortfolio.

1. Click My Items.
2. Click on the arrow behind the item you want to push.
3. Click Push.

  1. Select Automatically include associated items to also push associated items (learning objectives, etc.).
  2. Click Next.

The header Users can be used to search for individual recipients.
The header Sharing Groups can be used to search for Sharing Groups.
The header Course can be used to search for an entire course.

  1. Type in the first name, last name (without infix), email address or U-/E-/S- number of the recipient.
  2. Select the recipients from the list of search results.
  3. Click Push.
  1. Click Yes.

The pushed item appears in the My Items screen of the recipient.

 

The recipient sees Created by followed by his own username and thus cannot see who has pushed the item.
