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.

Sharing a new theme called Cyborg. It's very dark, is responsive and tested in 1.9. Does a nice job when used to display pictures, video or other visual media. Maybe not the first choice to display text. It supports an extra horizontal menu next to the logo and has a extra 'Team Work' button in top right that activates the TogetherJS collaboration tool. Easy instructions on how to install theme and how to turn the extra stuff on or off are contained in the included README file. Maybe test it at http://www.portfoliocommunties.com before downloading. To do so, log in , click on settings (top right corner) and select 'Cyborg' from available themes.

Amelia - new theme

A derivative of the theme posted above. Uses different font and different colors. Everything else is the same. Note: Although they work well for me, these are hobby themes. Github links coming soon.
