{% hint style="info" %}

{% endhint %}

### Step 1: Sign in to your account

1. Open your internet browser and navigate to the Arabian Child Learning Platform website.
2. Click the **SIGN IN** button at the top-right corner
3. On the pop-up window, enter your **Username** and **Password**, then click **SIGN IN**.

{% hint style="success" %} After signing in successfully, you will be redirected to the Home Page. {% endhint %}

#### Step 2: Locate and open your course

You will land on the **Home Page**. Open your course from the Learning Dashboard or all my courses area.

#### Step 3: Locate the portfolio/evidence activity

From your course materials, find the portfolio or evidence activity you need to submit, then click its title to open it.

{% hint style="info" %} Read the activity instructions carefully — they'll specify what evidence or portfolio files are required (for example, photos, observation forms, planning documents, or certificates). {% endhint %}

#### Step 4: Review the instructions and sample files

Before preparing your own evidence, open the activity's resource list and review each item marked as **Completed** or **In progress**:

1. Click on each guidance item (for example, guidance slides or preparatory instructions) to view it
2. Read through the criteria carefully — these explain exactly what's expected for your practical evaluation or observation
3. Download any sample or template files provided, such as the practical observation criteria file
4. Use these samples as a reference for how your own portfolio files or evidence should be prepared and formatted

{% hint style="warning" %} Make sure you've reviewed all the guidance items before you start preparing your files. Skipping this step may mean your evidence doesn't match what's required. {% endhint %}

#### Step 5: Prepare your files

Before uploading, make sure your files are ready:

1. Save each file with a clear, recognizable name (for example, `Observation_Form_1`, `Portfolio_Evidence_Photo_2`)
2. Make sure each file is in an accepted format (PDF, Word, JPG, PNG, etc.)
3. Gather all the files you plan to upload in one place on your device, so they're easy to find

{% hint style="warning" %} You can upload more than one file at a time. Make sure you have all your evidence ready before you begin, so you don't miss uploading a required piece. {% endhint %}

#### Step 6: Upload your files

Return to the activity page on the platform:

1. Click **Add File** or **Upload**
2. Select the file(s) you'd like to upload from your device — you can select multiple files at once, or upload them one by one
3. Wait for each file to finish uploading before adding the next, if uploading individually
4. Repeat until all your required portfolio files or evidence pieces have been added

{% hint style="info" %} You can review the list of uploaded files on the activity page. If you need to remove or replace a file, look for the delete or replace icon next to each uploaded item. {% endhint %}

#### Step 7: Confirm your uploads

Before submitting, check that:

* All required files have been uploaded
* Each file is correctly named and matches what was requested
* No files are missing or incomplete

#### Step 8: Submit your evidence

Once all your files are uploaded and confirmed:

1. Click **Submit** or **Confirm Submission**
2. A confirmation message will appear once your files have been submitted successfully

{% hint style="info" %} Once submitted, your portfolio files will be marked as complete. You'll be able to see them listed under the activity going forward. {% endhint %}

#### Step 9: Submission confirmation

{% hint style="success" %} Congratulations! You have successfully submitted your professional portfolio files/evidence. {% endhint %}

{% endhint %}

2. Change the access permission from **Editor** to **Commenter**
3. Copy the generated link

{% hint style="info" %}

1. Click **Add a Link**
2. Paste your copied Google Doc link into the field
