Re: ISED/Online portfolios for performing arts

I am also looking at Mahara, as we use Moodle. I'd be glad to discuss. =
However, I haven't set it up on our server yet, and I want to tinker a bit =
before I comment.

I also have a contact in England who is using it, and I'll ask him if he =
would mind an email or two, if you'd like.

The dance teacher at our school is interested in having students create
online portfolios to complement their "real world" portfolios. She's =
looking
for something that would allow students to easily post videos, photos, a
resume, possibly some reflections, and allow all of this information to
easily be shared with others, both inside and outside of our school
community. Has anyone set something like this up, or have any
recommendations for websites that provide a similar service?

I found a couple pointers toward Mahara, which seems pretty neat and will
supposedly integrate well with Moodle (which we are currently using
internally). Does anyone have any experience with Mahara, either good or
bad?

Thanks!
