iRubric-For-Sakai Streamlines Grading With Rubrics And Accreditation Planning
Announcing the official launch of iRubric-for-Sakai, a comprehensive assessment and analysis suite for Sakai CLE.
Irvine, CA, Jan 21, 2010: Reazon Systems, Inc., a leading provider of education technologies has officially released “iRubric for Sakai” – a comprehensive rubric generation, assessment, and reporting suite for the Sakai CLE (Collaborative Learning Environment).
iRubric's seamless integration with Sakai CLE allows users to access iRubric directly from the Sakai gradebook. The platform provides educators with rubric generation and assessment tools, students with viewing capabilities for pre- and post-assessment, and administrators with detailed real-time reports for analysis and monitoring of student performance and learning outcomes. The use of rubrics, alignment with standards, and reporting capabilities of iRubric are invaluable for successful accreditation planning. The integration of iRubric with Sakai was the result of a year-long collaborative effort with the Indiana University culminating in a full semester of pilot testing.
“We are excited to have accomplished a seamless integration between the two platforms and to allow Sakai users to easily build and grade rubrics with a few simple clicks,” said Ramesh Sabetiashraf, the creator of iRubric. “Equally important was student privacy and security as sensitive student data transmitted between the two systems. From the onset, our integration effort placed a strong emphasis on ease-of-use and security. We are happy to have fulfilled both objectives to meet our users’ high standards.”
iRubric-for-Sakai is available to K-12 and Higher Education through a variety of flexible licensing and hosting options, designed to meet the needs of a wide range of organizational sizes. Hosting plans eliminate the need for internal infrastructure, IT support, and server maintenance. Schools may also select a licensing plan to host iRubric internally.

iRubric For Sakai Launches At The Indiana University
The award winning iRubric is selected by the Indiana University School of Education to streamline their assessment processes and align with standards.
Irvine, CA, Sept 17, 2009: Reazon Systems, Inc., a leading provider of education technologies, announced the launching of its iRubric for Sakai integration in collaboration with the Indiana University School of Education for Fall 2009. iRubric Assessment and Standards Management has been fully integrated with OnCourse CLE, Indiana University’s version of Sakai.
Through this integration effort, Indiana University’s OnCourse users can access iRubric from their familiar OnCourse environment, saving considerable time and effort in grading and the aggregation of detailed assessment data required for School of Education’s NCATE (National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education) accreditation reports.
“We are honored to have been selected by Indiana University as the system-of-choice to address their assessment and accreditation needs,” said Ramesh Sabetiashraf, the creator of iRubric Assessment and Standards Management System. “iRubric users have acknowledged our system as a comprehensive and easy-to-use platform that dramatically improves their productivity. The integration effort has been a continuation of our philosophy to provide the highest level of usability and efficiency to Sakai users and to realize an ideal learning experience for students.”
"Results from our program assessments indicated a need to provide detailed feedback to students using rubrics and in-depth reporting of key measures for analysis of overall teacher education programs effectiveness. iRubric proved to be an excellent solution for meeting these needs. The integration with our Oncourse management system allows us to leverage the extensive investment in our Sakai solution as well as provide an intuitive navigation to the iRubric system. The comprehensive and easy-to-use rubric building and scoring wizards are likely to be incorporated in many of our other courses. We are delighted with the effectiveness of the Reazon engineering team, its attention to detail, secure coding approach and overall responsiveness. We look forward to a continued collaboration." said Larry Riss, CIO of School of Education at Indiana University.
