The document discusses integrating the Mahara e-portfolio system and social network into the Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering (BScE) program. It describes how Mahara allows students to document experiences, reflections, artifacts and receive feedback over four years. Features like displaying profiles, collaborating, customization and integration with tools like Zotero and tagging are highlighted. It encourages testing the Mahara demo and provides contacts for more information about the BScE program.

Editor's Notes
- developmental portfolio approach was chosen to encourage students to document and reflect their learning, practice and study processes re-visit previous work see a “red thread” / “common theme” throughout their 4 years of studies have tutor at their side who gives them feedback to their portfolio work

- students already produce multimodal and multimedia artefacts, e.g. video recordings in internship classes projects in seminars easy updating, re-arranging always accessible for students & tutors, e.g. also between classes if they want to make any additions, perpetual opportunities for interaction and sharing
- Mahara = to think, thinking, thought Open source Flexible to use outside resources can be aggregated Collaboration is possible Can be used as social network No HTML knowledge required Moodle networking (LDAP, SSO) import and export with LEAP2A coming version 1.2

- up to now only oral feedback -> next tutor does not have a record -> feedback also needs to become an artefact in the students’ portfolios
- not just with tutor, but with anybody they wish (who has a login)
- - students can set up their own groups without asking admin / teachers - students can decide who shall be member or not - use discussion forums, share files, create views -> shared information and learning space - teachers have 2 additional groups
- - overview of everything about the student that is accessible to me - not just information, but also interaction (wall), social aspect (friends)
