Purpose
PASS-PORT was designed to help Louisiana Collges and Universities meet

*"File Artifacts" submitted by students for review by a faculty member
*"Professional Development Experiences"
*"Field Experiences" with associated assessments from faculty members and participating teacher mentors
*"Web Links" to student works
*"Student Self Assessments" in the form of questionnaires
*"Faculty Assessments" of student performance
*"Standardized Tests" such as the Praxis battery
*"Course Grades"It has a template-based design which allows administrators to design their own evaluation instruments and associate those measurements directly to standards. PASS-PORT also collects Demographic data on students, faculty members, and field experience participants. It also automates the review process associated with a student's transition points (which PASS-PORT calls a portal).Other Course Management Systems
