# Using ManageBac for Portfolios and Journalling

Student learning is strengthened through opportunities to reflect, connect, share and curate evidence of their learning. ManageBac offers a range of portfolios and journals that can be used throughout the IB programmes.

The Student Portfolio is available for every ManageBac student, providing a collection of their academic work over time, along with opportunities for goal setting and reflection. Learn more about the Student Portfolio and how to set it up using the resources below.
