Background
RCampus was beta released in 2005 to complement the online community aspect of ClassCentral and FacultyCentral, the early version of a fully web-based CMS pioneered by Reazon in 1999.
In 2007, RCampus added iRubric rubric builder and assessment system for standards-based assessments for evaluation of student learning outcomes. It encompasses pre-assessment expectations through post-assessment communication and analysis. In 2008, RCampus added ePortfolio system for authentic assessment. It allows students to build multiple ePortfolios for different objectives.
