Mahara Tutorials for Students and Faculty

I've created four tutorials for our students and staff on how to use the online electronic portfolio system titled Mahara (the Sylvan ePortfolio). I figured we might get a few student interested during the winter holiday break. I tried to keep it pretty simple and use fairly common language. I hope to give a quick overview of what can be done with Mahara and some of its key components.

Part II - Sylvan Mahara - Creating Views (aka - "Web Sites")

Part III - Sylvan Mahara - Set Viewing Permissions (for other Mahara users)
Part IV - Sylvan Mahara - Creating Groups
