Mahara and The UWI Global Campus
Mahara and The UWI Global Campus
Mahara also known as ePortfolio at the Global Campus is utilised by Course Coordinators. They task students with the job of writing reflections using Journals, uploading these to their ePortfolio page and sharing it with them for grading.
The following are the 3 main uses of Mahara within the UWI OC:
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.
Mahara allows portfolios to be shared flexibly with one person, a specific group of people, or the entire world. Access can be further restricted to a particular time frame or just within an assessment task.
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.
