Assessment Management System
HELIOCAMPUS, formerly AEFIS (Assessment, Evaluation, Feedback, and Intervention System) is an intuitive, user-friendly assessment management platform with eight integrated solutions native to its framework and directly linked to our assessment needs. Johns Hopkins University has adopted Heliocampus as our Assessment Management System. Effective Spring 2022, JHSON will adopt the Heliocampus syllabus management tool to manage course syllabi, and will also help connect program learning outcomes with course learning outcomes and course-based assessments.
GETTING STARTED WITH THE SYLLABUS
The Heliocampus system allows course syllabi to be easily imported into online courses. The process allows for instructor review and editing of many parts of the syllabus. These instructions will bring you up to speed on how to utilize this new functionality.
