Taskstream provides cloud-based software for assessment, accreditation, and e-portfolios to hundreds of universities, colleges, and K-12 schools throughout the United States and the world.
Taskstream’s platforms provide a centralized information and communication hub for assessment, accreditation, and planning activities across an institution. These include academic and non-academic outcomes assessment, planning, and program review. Taskstream offers specialized tools that enable users to document learning outcomes, align outcomes to institutional goals and standards, develop assessment plans, create curriculum maps, manage faculty credentials, and improve education based on findings.
Taskstream’s suite of tools also includes e-portfolios to engage students and faculty in a reflective process of formative and summative assessment. The tools facilitate the collection of student work, student reflections on the learning process, and faculty or peer rubric-based assessment. Rubrics, which are used to clarify expectations and scoring criteria, may also be aligned with established learning outcomes, standards, and competencies. The software provides reporting capabilities to support the aggregation and analysis of student performance data for the review of program and institutional effectiveness, as well as for reporting to accrediting agencies and other external stakeholders.
