The main issues I tried to make people aware of was not the minor problem we had with Mahara during the testing phase of MOSEP in Germany. And this was not due to any update or so, just the normal bugs you have to deal with when you are using an open source (but not only!!!) software. What I wanted to say was that it is not enough to have an ePortfolio or to use any other web based tools for improving education. We have to change our attitude towards the way we are teaching and learning and for this we need more support from administration, school management but also more enhusiasm from teachers to change their teaching methods for more collaborative forms. I am convinced that the method of using ePortfolios will contribute a lot on this long road of learning and reflection as well for students as for teachers. Thank you for sharing your impressions of the EduMedia conference. Hi Ralf, I’d like to comment on the ePortfolio expert forum and the presentation I held there.
