Do you have any suggestion about strategy we can use to handle access/permission (group? realms?) and how to implement it?
(We can handle the modifications of the user interface without any big problems.
We would need pointers to elements of solutions for the access/permission side.)

Item-Level Review Workflow (Rutgers)

Rutgers is preparing a campus-wide portfolio. We have a very decentalized structure. So there's not a single office helping students and using it for assessment. Rather, various people will be asking students to make entries in their portfolio, and reviewing them:

• first year seminars
• college life people
• courses
• departments
• college staff doing assessment

This makes evaluation using a rubric difficult, because without some additional code, we would mix evaluations done by very different people for different purposes. Each program may want to review the
items they have assessed. In general we want to assess individual items (forms), not cells.

I've added a new review workflow that keeps track of who the assessment was done for. Internally it is a single table. It points to an item, a review, a group within the site, and a reviewer. Next to an item in a cell, I've added a new command, "submit for review". When a student selects that, they get a list of all groups they in, with the people in that group who have review permission. The student then submits the item to a specific person. (The problem is that a student may well be in more than one group that is using the portfolio.)

Reviewers have a listing of all items that have been submitted to them for review (and a separate listing of items they have previously reviewed). I believe this gives us enough data that we can produce reports for a course or a program on items they have reviewed.
