The MD Program utilizes a number of systems to manage student assessment, student progress, course evaluation and teacher evaluation. These systems are administered by the Office of Assessment and Evaluation.
MedSIS is the online system that the MD Program uses to maintain student registration information, record and calculate student assessments by teachers, obtain student evaluations on their teachers and courses, and perform course scheduling. Students can view their course schedules, review and complete evaluations and access grades.
OASES is an online tool for written assignments, allowing students to securely upload documents and evaluators to provide feedback. Students will use OASES to submit their portfolio reflections and other written assignments. For support, contact your course administrator.
The Learner Chart is a one-of-a-kind application that chronicles and guides students’ progress throughout the MD Program. The Learner Chart will be populated with assessment information from MedSIS, OASES and ExamSoft to provide a rich and holistic view of student progress. At the same time, it allows students to upload files – from documents to images – that tell their unique story of how they are demonstrating competency. Academy Scholars will have access to students’ Learner Charts to support students in reflecting on their assessment data and encourage focused dialogue on what learning strategies students may need to take to enhance their performance, with the ultimate goal of developing a personal learning plan for each student.
Elentra is the MD Program learning management system. Students and faculty can use Elentra to view important information on course pages and within assigned community pages. The curriculum searching tools allow users to search topics, learning events, objectives and competencies for the program, and view what they are linked to within the curriculum.
