A collection in the e-Portfolio application, Mahara, is a set of pages that are linked to one another. Collections are an easy way to share a number of pages and "templates" for departments and programs that have specific requirements.
To copy a collection of pages that have been set up by your department, program, etc. log in to mahara at https://mahara.cc.lehigh.edu with your Lehigh username and password.
You will be brought to your Mahara dashboard. Find the Groups link in the menu under the Lehigh University Banner and choose "Find Groups."
In the groups listing find the group you are looking for. In this case, I am searching for Graduate Professional Development ePortfolio Project. Find the collection and click the "Join this group" button.
You will then be brought to the first page of the portfolio. You know have to copy the collection of pages.
To do so, find the Portfolio button in the menu and choose Collections. If you have copied any previous collections, they will be listed at this screen. To continue, click the "Copy and Collection" button.
And, in this case, find the "Graduate Student ePorfolio" collection and click "Copy collection."
At the next screen, change the name of the collection to mirror your personal portfolio. In this case, I changed the name to Jason's Grad Portfolio. Click the "Next: Edit collection pages" button."
