<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>This is how easy it gets with
Mahara and Moodle. <br>
<br>
When a student gets ready to upload an assignment, resource etc to Moodle then
there is an option to also add the object to their Mahara ePortfolio. Their
classes may come and go each year . but they get to keep and manage their
ePortfolio throughout their life at the college with complete control over how
they use, adapt and skin it.<br>
<br>
It makes a lot of sense when you think about Moodle this way, rather than try
to be all things to all people .. this is where you tie third party
applications into it (supporting single sign-in etc.) Here is a cool 9 min
video that will walk you this process and explain how Mahara works.<br>
<a
href="http://au.youtube.com/watch?feature=related&v=2a3I5xj6k5s">http://au.youtube.com/watch?feature=related&v=2a3I5xj6k5s</a><br>
<br>
All up, it just uses the same PHP and MySQL tools that Moodle uses and Kevork
teaches in his cool text book. We are building our Mahara server next week and
it will be fun. <br>

Stephen, I have looked at mahara before (quite a while ago) but was not aware
it could be used within moodle.<br>
I shall investigate and let you know how it goes.<br>

<p class=MsoNormal><br>
I searched "portfolio" and came up with 3 - Exabis, Simple and SPDC<br>
<br>
Has anyone used any of these, or does the blog work just as well?<br>
Any recommendations would be great<br>
