Assessory

Assessory is an open source tool for smart and social assessment. We're starting by supporting "studio-style" critique processes, but will expand from there.

It connects to Moodle and other LMSs via LTI, and can also link to some social accounts (primarily GitHub) via OAuth.

Where possible, we support the use of third party services. For example, we find it is often easier for students to share a video to YouTube and submit the link than to submit a video file directly.

The project was started by Will Billingsley at NICTA, for use in a software studio course at The University of Queensland, and is being further developed by Will at the Unversity of New England. It is open source under an MIT licence.

Status

Having prototyped and iterated on the system in five courses at two universities for a few years, we're now trying to regularise Assessory -- turn it into a proper open source product that other universities can download and use.

In the mean-time, if you would like to use it, send Will an email: wbilling@une.edu.au
