Uploading evidence and engaging with coaches and peers

As you participate in learning journeys on the OpX platform, you may have the opportunity to upload evidence of your progress and engage with coaches. Here's a guide to help you understand and utilise the evidence folder feature and make the most of your interactions:

Introduction to the Evidence Folder Feature:

The evidence folder is a dedicated space within the platform where you can securely upload and store evidence of your learning and achievements. It allows you to document your progress, showcase completed tasks, and provide tangible proof of your skills development.

Steps to Save Evidence in the Evidence Folder:

1. Navigate to the Learning Journey: Access the learning journey in which you want to upload evidence. This can be done through your dashboard or the learning journey tab in the platform's navigation menu.

2. Locate the Evidence Folder: Once inside the learning journey, look for the evidence folder section. It is typically located within each phase or module and can be easily identified by its name or icon.

    

3. Upload Evidence: Click on the plus (+) button or the designated upload button within the evidence folder section. This will prompt you to select the relevant file from your device. Choose the file that represents the evidence you want to upload, such as a completed task, a project deliverable, or any other relevant documentation.

    

4. Specify the Phase or Module: During the upload process, you may be asked to specify the phase or module to which the evidence belongs. This ensures that the evidence is correctly categorised and associated with the corresponding learning content.

5. Add Optional Information: Depending on the platform's settings, you may have the option to provide additional details or context about the evidence you are uploading. This can include a brief description, tags, or any other relevant information that helps provide context to coaches or peers who review the evidence.

6. Save and Notify: Once you have uploaded the evidence and provided any necessary information, click the save or submit button to complete the process. In some cases, you may also have the option to notify your coach or peers about the newly uploaded evidence to draw their attention to it.

Clarifying Where Evidence Can and Cannot be Uploaded:

It's important to note that evidence should be uploaded only within the designated evidence folder sections of the learning journey. These sections are specifically designed to capture and organise evidence related to the corresponding learning content. Avoid uploading evidence in unrelated areas or attempting to attach files to discussions, messages, or other non-evidence-specific features.

Troubleshooting Issues with Evidence Folder Access or Upload:

If you encounter any issues with accessing or uploading evidence in the evidence folder, here are a few troubleshooting steps you can take:

1. Check Permissions:

    

   Ensure that you have the necessary permissions to access and upload evidence. Contact your coach or platform administrator if you believe there might be an issue with your user settings.

    

2. Clear Cache and Refresh:

    

   Sometimes, temporary glitches or cached data can interfere with the functionality of the evidence folder. Clear your browser cache, refresh the page, and try uploading the evidence again.

    

3. Verify File Format and Size:

    

   Confirm that the file you are attempting to upload is in a compatible format (e.g., PDF, Word document, image file) and within the allowed file size limit. Check the platform guidelines or reach out to support if you encounter specific restrictions.

    

4. Reach Out to Support:

    

   If you have followed the above steps and are still experiencing issues with the evidence folder, don't hesitate to reach out to the platform's support team. They will be able to provide further assistance and help resolve any technical difficulties you may be facing.

By understanding how to save evidence in the evidence folder, clarifying where evidence should be uploaded, and troubleshooting any access or upload issues, you can not only effectively document your progress and enhances your ability to showcase your skills and accomplishments but also facilitates meaningful interactions with coaches and peers, who can provide valuable feedback and support based on the evidence you have compiled.
