Working together on a map or giving feedback on a map of a student is easy within Rationale. How do you do it?
In the drop-down menu "Make Public" you see 5 options (more than in the video):
By changing the status of the map to "Unlisted" or "Public", you get a link (down at the left of your screen) you can share (see video above). An "Unlisted" Map is accessible by anyone with knowlegde of the link, a "Public" Map is accessible by everybody, see Public Maps.
By changing the status of the map to "Read Only" you can share the map with the link, but people cannot change the map (e.g. for assignments or model answers).
By changing the status of the map to "Collaboration" you can share your map with eg. a lecturer or a group of students. When you click "Collaboration", you can add users with "Read/write" or "Read-only" access. When you want to receive feedback or work together on a map you should choose "Read/write" access.
You add users by username or email address (only if email address is made public by user).
A user of Rationale will need to share his/her user name or allow the email address to be used to enable others to share their maps with him/her. When the invitee has allowed to receive email notifications in his Rationale Profile, he/she will receive an email that someone has shared a map with you.
Now the invitee will see in his/her My Maps in the folder "Shared with me" the map that was just shared with him/her by someone else.
Open it, give feedback by e.g. adding yellow notes (Ctrl+A) and save it (Ctrl+S) and the owner of the map will see the feedback in his/her map. There is also a version history so that you can compare, go back to earlier versions etc.
