PortfolioGen started as a project between two dedicated teachers from New Jersey. They were looking for way to create an online presence that would allow them to share their skills and achievements with their peers and administrators. Sure, there were options available to build webpages and share documents but nothing that gave the features, customization and simplicity that they were looking for. At first, this was a very basic site that they both used for our academic advancement but soon grew into a labor of love and pride as they noticed more and more people inquiring about the site, sending positive feedback and offering up suggestions. They quickly embraced the idea of building a great product that their users find a valuable resource. With 90,000 teachers, students, educators and professionals from all over the world using PortfolioGen, they are more dedicated than ever in providing a great resource. They personally handle every comment and inquiry and are constantly working on new features and listening to our users. This will be added to Education and Academic Resources Subject Tracer™.

Smartify is an app designed to enrich the experience of visiting a museum or gallery. At participating venues, users can photograph a work to access detailed contextual information on the work and the artist who created it. The Smartify website describes the goal of this approach: “to re-frame the use of smartphones as engagement rather than a distraction,” and to, “help people make meaningful connections with art.” Users can add art to their own personal gallery in the app to revisit and further explore. A list of participating venues can be found on the Smartify website, along with information for venues on how they can participate. Smartify is available for iOS and Android devices.
