Public bug reported:

Enhancement / New Functionality:
I was recently asked to look at online submission of tutor reports for our institution. I started by testing with Feedback form in Moodle - this works very well except that at some point the report needs to be shown to the individual student - not just sent from the tutor writing the report to Head of Department. I thought the more controllable views in Mahara would be ideal to enable this - in theory the student could even display the report as part of their resume if allowed. I therefore created a template of the form using text boxes - but that means the tutor needs to click to edit every single field in the report, making if far less user friendly. If there was an option to add Form Fields to a page (not just editabe text boxes) so that the person writing the report just types into the boxes (without having to edit each one) it would make Mahara the ideal solution to deliver this functionality. This could potentially be setup with other form functionality such as pre-populated dropdown lists of values.
Regards, Gordon.
