How it works for staff

Tutors and Administrators

  • Create a customised portfolio structure (template) that identifies and organises the requirements that students must meet by submitting work and reflections in the portfolio.
  • Review, comment on, and formally evaluate individual pieces of evidence or a student’s entire body of work and track students’ progress as they submit work within their portfolios.
  • Weight evaluation scores on individual artefacts or the entire portfolio to assess competency against the criterion-based grading system or other requirements.
  • Generate progress reports documenting individual submissions and scores, and the progress of the entire class.
  • Generate customised reports organised by performance of individuals or groups on defined criteria.
  • Organise, aggregate, and disaggregate college-wide data required for accreditation or systemic analysis purposes.
  • Use TaskStream’s flexible structure to easily partner with other institutions to create a collaborative community online.
  • Monitor multiple evaluators to track inter-rater reliability.
  • Tutors can also share portfolios design and learning materials which greatly enhances quality and observation of teaching and learning.

All data can be exported directly to MS Excel or as a comma delineated file.  Data can subsequently be imported into other systems, such as course management or student information systems.
