Create portfolios

Using Mahara, students and staff create their personal learning stories by uploading evidence of activities they have participated in, and embedding publicly accessible content they have previously put online. They can write reflections on their experiences that frame this evidence, map it to competencies or registration requirements, and provide necessary context.

Mahara can be used for many different portfolio purposes, such as study, professional development, work-integrated learning, assessment, showcase and presentation, and employability.

Engage with others

Mahara makes it easy to comment and give feedback. Portfolios can also be submitted to learning management systems via LTI (Learning Tools Interoperability) for marking.

Groups in Mahara allow people to create portfolios collaboratively and engage in forum discussions.

Some of my students will be wanting to upload web pages that they have designed as artefacts on Mahara. The difficulty is, as we all know, web pages are not generally single files but require additional files such as images, CSS docs, and possibly js files as well.

What is the best way to upload these to a portfolio so that they will display as required?

Hi Alan,

a workaround is to use screenshots and link to the students websites.

Maybe the students could add a zip file of the website folder below the screen shot for users to download so they can enjoy the live site on their client.
