Abstract

A new dynamic is emerging in design education, which remain popular and noteworthy today is portfolio design. As a portfolio, design students realize the importance of presenting the creative ideas, projects and works they develop in the process of expressing themselves and their talents for their future careers. Presenting their works and designs in print or digital form, photographing the works and expressing them correctly are one of the most important stages of the design education process. The portfolio is a selection that represents the student, which is important for any academic career, design field in which the student aims to communicate with field professionals after graduation. In this regard, portfolio design, in which the selection, photography, presentation and information of the works that should be included in the course in the design education process are prepared in an original way, will remain important as long as design education exists. When it comes to distance education, portfolio design course, which includes three dimensions, should offer solutions within its own structure. While these solutions enable the student to fully express themselves and their projects, they should also enable the instructor to understand the project easily and provide criticism.
