Summary

In this chapter, you had a look at some of the extensions that are available for the Mahara platform.

You saw examples of how to use these extensions on the foliofor.me platform. Perhaps now you've had a look through some of them, you can see their value and would like to persuade your system administrator to install a few for your Mahara site.

You specifically looked at CPD for logging continuous professional development activity, Embedly block for allowing the inclusion of Web 2.0 embeds in a page, the My Learning artefact (Multiple Intelligence and Learning Style assessments), social networking share buttons (Twitter, LinkedIn, and Facebook), and embedding your LinkedIn profile.

That's all for the book proper — we hope you have enjoyed finding out about the Mahara platform and felt inspired to make use of its many features. Read on to find a pre-implementation guide and a guide for installing Mahara, in the appendices.
