=Session 2: Privacy issues and selection of artifacts=

Privacy protection
Young learners without significant experience of using ePortfolio packages need to be instructed to take special care, regarding the privacy of their personal details. This is because it is important to be careful with the possiblities and positive effects that free access to e-portfolios and artefacts in the Internet provide, with respect to privacy issues.

There are several grades of privacy protection to limit the access to e-portfolios and its artefacts:


 * possibility of using different levels of privacy when accessing and presenting e-portfolio;
 * the specificity of public access to personal data on the Internet;
 * the trade-off between tendencies to present one's work and to keep some things private;
 * the value of publishing for your own;
 * reasons to present certain materials.
