Title:
Interface to create custom form artefacts
Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
Confirmed
Bug description:
For Mahara to be useful we would need to ability to create completely
custom forms for students to enter data. I imagine that these things
would be artifacts of some sort. The main features of this would be as
follows...
* Artifact is a simple collection of form fields that are available to students to fill in.
* The can be included in a view so that students can share and reflect
* They need to be created by non technical users, so some simple builder mode would be needed. This needn't be too complicated. Probably just a list of fields with names and descriptions with "add new"/"delete"/"edit" options.
* They need to be attached to institutions somehow. That is only students from a particular institution can see "their" custom forms.
We might be able to put some effort into this, but I guess the big questions are:
* Is there a mechanism to control artifacts and views on an institution by institution>
* Does the artifact model easily (or at all) permit simple artifacts to be created "virtually" - some sort of database construct or (worse) serialised object as opposed to a block of code?
