This sample portfolio is designed to provide guidance and suggestions as you create your own portfolio. This site is in New Google Sites, but there are many other options. No matter which resource you use to create your site, the structure should be very similar to this one. Your page names should correspond to the names of the pages on this site (and therefore with the Portfolio Guidelines). There are further instructions on most of the pages of this template site.
To use this site as a model, just navigate through the site and follow instructions and advice on each page as you build your site in WordPress, Weebly, etc. To use this model site as a template, click the "more" menu (the three dots) next to the Publish button. You should see an option to "Duplicate this site." Your EM mentor will have to give you access to the model site as an Editor.
Before you begin, I recommend that you review sites that your peers have created. Many of them have used Google Sites. Others have used WordPress, Weebly, MSU ePortfolio, and more.
Then, before you start designing, collect all the materials you want to include in your site in a folder in the same Google Drive account that you are using to make this site. Remember to add documents and also collect images and links that you want to use. Then, adjust the Share settings on these documents in Drive so that anyone with the link can view them.
To embed images in your Google Site, you can use Insert > Images from the menu on the right, or you can just copy and paste an image onto the page.
In addition to embedding images, you can change the cover image or the background of any page section. See Help for details.
