Assessment and/or CPD on a mobile device

Hi all

We are seeing a need from organisations to have an app/web device for both:

  • Assessors to log the competencies a Learner gains at a face to face assessment 
  • Learners to enter detailed log of their experiences in the field - which are later used for re-accreditation

Both interfaces require the capture of bespoke information pertinent to the assessment or experience log.

I'm interested to understand if other members here have any experience or pointers for:

  • Mobile based tools that integrate to an existing Totara activity
  • That can be used to capture experience or provide assessment of a Learner

I work in sport and complex assessments of Learners are made face to face, Assessors like to process feedback in real-time via a mobile device.

Any help is welcome!

thanks

mark

Hi Mark

The assignment activity allows submission of files and comments and grades to be made by assessors

Totara's mobile app will allow content from the mobile device to be uploaded to this activity.

Reaccreditation sounds like Certifications could be used so the courses are reset after a specified period 

Alternatively performance activities could be created to setup the questions that each participant needs to answer . This isn't included in the mobile app but you could view the performance activity using the web browser on the mobile device to get this functionality . The screens are all responsive design but may still need a bit of scrolling around depending on the size of the device.
