ePortfolio through TaskStream 

All students in the program for the online M.S. in Family Studies (OM, for Online Master's) are required to maintain an account at TaskStream (www.taskstream.com) from first through final semester.

For entry tips, see the Family Studies Advising Blackboard (Bb) shell. On the front page (right side), you will find TaskStream enrollment information. Also in Bb, click the menu item ePortfolio & TaskStream for current instructions.

You will use TaskStream for...

• Tracking your course work in the programs. You will make entries in to the CAT, which stands for Couse-Embedded Assessment Tracking program.
• Creating your final product for the M.S. At the end of your program, you will add a program called the M.S. in Family Studies, or (more colloquially) "the exit program." This is the space in which you will create your professional portfolio as your final Master's product.
• Keeping a record of your courses. One of the entry points in the CAT is for an amendable list of your courses. The Department uses this list to project enrollments and plan for class sections. (Your course list in the CAT is in addition to filing an official degree plan.)
• Sharing your questions (answers) about TaskStream in a D iscussion Board set up on the platform (rather than having to leave TaskStream and enter Blackboard).
• Submitting course assignments in some classes for grading by your instructor. Some professors will direct you to course-specific programs; others will instruct you to submit your assignment to the CAT.
