Individual Portfolios
R. David Lanke
Note the main page, navigation, graphics, integration of Curriculum Vitae
and subsequent download options via the Biography link.

download and display the portfolio.
Elementary
School Student Portfolios
An interesting look at the design strategy these students used in terms of
the information they share about themselves, and the bold use of graphics.
Michael Corry,
Assistant Professor, Georgetown University
The portfolio layout is very simple. And you can assess immediately the
information that Michael wants to share with you. Note the link to the list
of articles and papers he has written. Also note the date that his portfolio
was last updated.
Raymond
R. Lafrenaye, M.S., C.F.M., Facilities Manager
Note the use of frames, and how he provides a separate link and Web page for
each section of his resume. I find this design as very cumbersome, forcing
the reader to click, wait while each page loads, and then reads each page
separately. A good technique is that the use of frames keeps the reader on
his portfolio pages despite the numerous number of links. How might you
redesign this portfolio?
Advanced
Resume Concepts Gallery of CareerFolio Web Resumes
The design and presentation of these Web resumes is based on color, borders,
fonts, and page backgrounds. Do these features really contribute to these
Web resumes as effective "marketing tools"? In what instances would you find
this approach useful? In what instances would you find this approach not
useful?
Luis Ruiz
Network Support Specialist
When you arrive at his main portfolio page, note how the Yahoo! banner
window pops up. This is something to consider when selecting free Web
hosting services to host your portfolio such as Geocities. Also, note how he
provides a link to his resume in "DOC format." It would be clearer if he
said "Microsoft Word format."
