− | rCampus is an amazing tool for educators. I have been working on my graduate action research project for the last five months. I chose to try rCampus to set up a gradebook for my subjects. I created a rubric online using the rubric tool. I also utilized the coursework link to the student roster. I logged in the scores for my students’ pre-assessment and post-assessments using the linked rubric for the assignment. I loved the fact that I could just click on the rubric and it would tally the scores for me without having to do calculations myself. My favorite feature though of the gradebook was the gradebook statistics feature. This feature gave me the data that I needed to share for my statistical analysis of the results for my research. It also allowed for importing the data to an Excel spreadsheet using comma set values if I needed to use this feature. The rubric statistics proved to be extremely valuable for my research project as well. I have recommended this tool to every educator that will give me long enough to tell them about the benefits of this web 2.0 tool. As a graduate student in the Masters of Education program with technology as my emphasis, I have to say that I am impressed with this tech tool!
