Try out Mahara

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.

Hi there, one of my colleagues is having problems with one of her groups not being able to edit a view. It seems to hang and just shows that it is processing. she has 3 other group views and students attached to those groups don't have any problems. Can anyone help please! I am fairly new to using Mahara so help and advice would be much appreciated!!. Thank you!

Hi Jackie,

is the content in that view different then in the other two? Perhaps embedded sites from somewhere?

yes - we've had similar problems with our students' views "hanging" and we found it was the ones that contained videos embedded from youtube.
