Martin Kimeldorf's Portfolio Library
If you're short on time and want to visit only one Website with information on portfolios, this is the one to choose. It links to Mr. Kimeldorf's articles and examples of two portfolios. It also extends and support's Mr. Kimeldorf's book, Portfolio Power, and the examples and notes explain the purpose and intent of the various parts of his career portfolio. Aron's Bike Portfolio is also a great example of a job search portfolio at a secondary school level.
