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.

Does anyone know what may be going wrong if a staff or tutor does not see the option to release a submitted view?

I think we may be having a problem with groups and roles.

Thanks

Hi,

I don't know whether staff can release views just by virtue of being staff. If they created the group then they have admin rights in the group, and thus would be able to. But if they didn't, then they might only be a member in the group.

Despite that, if your tutors (or group admins) can't see a way to release submitted views, that sounds like a bug. I think the controls to release a view are on the view itself - can your tutors not see the button there?
