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.

How to best design student managed institution views

A school wants to get their students to maintain three pre-formatted views. The links to samples are below.

I am wondering what the best way would be to set these views up so that the formatting does not change too much when students start editing. In particular, I am wondering how to lock the table width so that text in cells gets pushed down and not to the side. I am using the 'html' block and would set it to 1 column layout. It displays nicely when the effort is made to maintain table width but I am not sure all students or staff are aware of that.

I am curious to hear what others suggest. Thanks for taking the time to have a peak.
