Foliotek Interface Overview
After logging in Foliotek, you will be directed to the assessment home page. Its
tab will be highlighted at the top of your screen. The files tab is where you go to
create folders and organize and store all your uploaded documents. You can see
which of your courses use Foliotek each semester under the courses tab. Check
the profile tab to make sure it contains your current name and email
information. NOTE: We do not utilize the messages option.
The title at the top of this page is the name of your default portfolio. All
undergraduate teacher certification students in the College of Education have a
Teacher Education Q.T.S. portfolio as their default portfolio that they see first.
The second teaching field portfolio is dependent upon their major and program
of study. You can select which portfolio you choose to view by hovering with
your cursor over the gray text ADD/CHANGE PORTFOLIO that is located right
underneath the USA logo. Your left menu will change to accommodate that
portfolios structure.

You can add items to your To-Do List to set up your own deadlines for your tasks.
Watch the first (Dashboard) and the third (Files & Evaluations) tutorials to get
better acquainted with the Foliotek system. You can skip the Personal Portfolio
Builder tutorial since you will not be building your own portfolios.
The menu on the left displays the portfolio title, its components, and different
ways and options to view your Porfolios and Evaluations.
If you look at the structure of the Teacher Education Q.T.S. portfolio, you will
notice that it contains five (5) categories:
•
•
•
•
•
Content Knowledge
Teaching and Learning
Literacy
Diversity
Professionalism
Clicking any of the above categories will take you to the list of the corresponding
Standards. You see only a subset of all available standards of that particular category and
that is why there will be gaps in the listed numbers. You have to be extremely careful
when you search for a particular standard and should verify each character of the targeted
standard code.

We recommend that you upload all your documents under files tab and then link them to
the relevant standards. The number of the files and the date when you linked them to the
standard will appear in the column to the right of the standards. See the “Optimize File
Uploading with Folders” instructions for step-by-step, illustrated directions of this process.
