What is Mahara?

Mahara is an effective platform for creating portfolios within educational settings, empowering both students and educators to develop personalized learning stories by uploading proof of their diverse activities alongside any publicly accessible content they have shared in the past. Participants have the opportunity to express reflections that provide context to this evidence, connect it to competency benchmarks or registration requirements, and enhance the overall narrative. The adaptability of Mahara supports a wide range of portfolio uses, such as academic endeavors, professional development, work-integrated learning experiences, assessments, presentations, and improving job readiness. Users can choose to share their portfolios with specific individuals, designated groups, or even the broader online community, while also setting access limitations based on durations or particular assessment objectives. Additionally, Mahara promotes interaction through commenting and feedback, nurturing a collaborative educational atmosphere, and allows for seamless integration with learning management systems via LTI for submission and evaluation. This comprehensive approach not only enriches the educational experience but also motivates users to engage actively and reflect on their learning journeys, making it a vital resource in modern education. Ultimately, Mahara stands out as a key asset in fostering a culture of continuous improvement and shared knowledge within educational communities.
