portfolio?
A work portfolio is a personalized collection of your professional and personal work. For example, if you

showcase your photographs in the portfolio or if you have developed a project and want to display your
work, a portfolio can carry a description of your work along with pictorial evidences. Submitting a
portfolio can strengthen your meta-curricular experiences form.
