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.

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.

Hello Everybody,

I hope I'm posting this in the right place!

I have downloaded Mahara 1.2.5 from this site and have installed it onto a shared hosting account (with cPanel as the admin interface) and using a MySQL database.

I have had to do it this way as this is where my RTO has it's main website and Moodle installation.

It took me a while to get my head around what I needed to modify to make installation work but I have it sorted now and cannot find any major problems.

I have made the files and some instructions available as a little patch which is currently on my blog at http://redtwenty.net/blog

Cheers,

Mike Walters

Mods - if I need to move this somewhere else or you would like my patch files please let me know
