[Bug 1269730] Re: Sample template pages within core Mahara

 

I like this idea, although I think it would probably be most useful not
for end-users, but for potential site owners who've just downloaded the
software and are investigating it, trying to decide whether or not to
use it at their institution or not.

A softer variant on this same idea, is that sample pages could be shared
by members of the community as leap2a files, perhaps posted on a "sample
pages" section of the mahara.org website.

Title:
  Sample template pages within core Mahara

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Hi,

  Feature/resource request.
  At a recent Machara meeting (Scottish Mahara User Group) we looked at usability and workflow. One of the common points raised is the "where do I start" question - with almost everyone saying that they found copyable templates very useful for getting users started. The group thought that it would be valuable to have a set of exemplar template pages available within Mahara as a starting point so that users / teachers / administrators could get some ideas around content and structure for typical activities.
  Asking the Mahara community to share some examples of best-practice templates (perhaps another competition?) could generate a useful resource bank of template pages that could be added to the core product, which institutions could then adapt to local needs and jump-start usage.

  Regards, Gordon.
