]]>We do not yet have a demo site where you can log in as student, teacher or admin, but put that on a To Do list because it would be nice to have.
When you go into the admin area can you administer certain aspects of the institution. I cannot give you admin access for the entire demo site where you can do a bit more.
When you are not in the admin area, you have a combination of staff / teacher and admin rights. The difference between a teacher and a student is basically that a teacher can create "Controlled Membership" groups. Otherwise, there is no difference to a student. You will still need to search for a user's portfolio as you would as a student.
If you want to find out more what an administrator of an entire Mahara site can do, please go to the Site Administrator Guide.

]]>I'm an instructional designer looking into portfolio systems. Ideally, I would like to see how different users would be presented with the Mahara tool (say, a student vs an administrator or faculty member). What "view" am I seeing in the Demo account I just registered for? Is it possible to try out the different views while using the Demo? Please let me know if you need clarification.
Thank you!
