COE: LiveText We would not have passed NCATE without it and the CCTC was impressed too. We are less involved with WASC as they tend to accept the other accreditations as most of the data re programs, etc.

Taskstream We’re only in our first [trial] year of using it, so we don’t have enough info yet to know if it will help with accreditation (though it should!). The WASC team did not use it for assessment this year – and so far it’s just the College of Ed who are using it. Special Ed has been using it a bit longer than we have.

In the basic credential: TaskStream for our TPAs (Teacher Performance Assessments) Don't know anything about WASC but it definitely helped for NCATE and CCTC!

A few depts: LiveText, and they have geared it towards defining and assessing SLOs and other WASC recognized categories. We are still pending our WASC deadline, so it will be interesting to see how the ePortfolio data lends itself to the process...
Cal Poly Pomona Karen Brzoska
klbrzoska@csupomona.edu
Piloting the ePortfolio system in Bb. The teacher education department uses TaskStream for all of their students (it was adopted about a year or so ago I believe). One of the main reasons TaskStream was adopted was for accreditation purposes. The person who is involved with TaskStream from the College of Education is Kathy McNair (kmnair).

College of Education - TaskStream since Fall 2004 The quality of credential student's eportfolios really reflects their learning outcomes.

Some faculty members in the College of Education are using ePortfolios but this is defined in a very broad term, not limited to use of e-portfolio technology such as TaskStream or Folioteck. The use of ePortfolios in the College of Education is usually driven by NCATE accreditation.

AT has been piloting taskstream, which I am using and also piloting for the SJSU integrated learning project. I think it would be very useful for WASC ( I use it for our own professional accreditation).

In the COE, we continue to use TaskStream. We had great success with TaskStream as we completed the accreditation visit in Spring 2007 with great response from NCATE and CTC.

Our education folks have used Livetext to some extent, but with mixed results. We don't have our own system yet, though we are interested in pursuing this. My guess is that it probably would help with WASC.
