3 weeks ago Just bumping this, because it is still a wish at our side. At our University we are strict on attempts. A student gets two attempts for an assignment per year. We need to store these separate attempts in the system for archiving. Right now we are missing the link to the first attempt for a Moodle-Mahara assignment and I think it can be fixed pretty easily.
When a student submits a Moodle-Mahara assignment, it is set to:
So a link/url to the first attempt must be somewhere in Mahara and could be posted as first attempt in Moodle.

What are you trying to accomplish?
The assignment module in Moodle allows multiple attempts when submitting an assignment. In a 'normal' assignment submission, a student uploads his/her work and submits it for grading/feedback. When using multiple attempts, the student can resubmit (different) work and there's a build up of work and attempts that show learning progress. Also, for archiving it can be essential to have this documented.
The MaharaWS submission plugin allows multiple attempts, but doesn't store the multiple attempts. In stead, in Moodle one can read this: https://i.imgur.com/WwfiP1Q.png
We wish to have support for this option.
What are the main workflows?
See above.
How do you envisage this to work?
What would be nice is to make a copy of the portfolio for every attempt a student makes. These copies are being locked and kept. The link should be in the Moodle attempts, so that the learning progress will be visible (multiple versions of the same portfolio)
Benefits
Mahara is about learning progress. If a student submits a portfolio, and this is not yet sufficient to pass, a copy should be kept of the portfolio and it should be stored in the attempt on Moodle. That way a teacher can easily find it back.
