Taskstream

The School of Education and Professional Studies at CCSU has chosen to partner with Taskstream for assessment, accreditation, and continuous improvement.

Taskstream advances effective assessment to improve student learning and institutional quality. Taskstream provides online solutions and supporting services to plan and manage assessment processes and demonstrate both student learning achievement and institutional effectiveness for continuous improvement and accreditation.

STUDENTS

With Taskstream, you have access to a rich set of capabilities that supports your education in meaningful ways, not just a place to turn in assignments. Here are just some of the things you can do with your Taskstream account:

• Reflect on your learning experiences inside and outside of the classroom and personal growth over time regarding the knowledge and skills you are expected to master as a result of your education.

• Receive rich feedback from others, beyond course grades, for helping you improve in the areas that matter most for your discipline and general education.

• Turn your work into multiple high-impact online portfolios that showcase your experience, skills, and achievements through a variety of media for employers, instructors, and others.

• Maintain a record of work samples and accomplishments even after you graduate.

• Contribute to the accreditation and improvement of your program and institution -- the data the institution collects from scoring their work can be used to assess effectiveness and inform improvement.

FACULTY

Taskstream helps you derive more value from your assessment work so that you can focus on your students and improvements you can make to your courses that lead to better teaching and learning, not just address the requirements of external accreditors. With Taskstream, you can:

• Encourage students to reflect on their learning experiences inside and outside of the classroom and personal growth over time regarding the knowledge and skills they are expected to master as a result of your education.

• Provide students with the ability to build high-impact online e-portfolios that showcase their experience, skills, and achievements through a variety of media for employers, instructors, and others.

• Easily find work that your students have submitted for review, score it, and provide your students with rich feedback using custom rubrics and forms.

• Access real-time dashboards and approachable reports to see how your students are performing against the intended learning outcomes so you can identify appropriate strategies to help them improve.
