1. There is also a new module where you can link a “Google Doc” to your e-Portfolio which adds a whole new dimension to the way content is shared in your e-Portfolio. Follow steps 1-3 in the edit mode of the module to add the google doc to your e-Portfolio and instead of having to upload a version whenever you make a change, just modify the google doc and the changes are already applied to the page in your e-Portfolio. (See image 1.7, 1.8, 1.9)
