  • Digital PoE’s can be completed on mobile, tablet and desktop.  Wi-fi or data is needed for downloads and uploads, but certain work can be done “off-line”.

But what about class tests?

No assignments or tests need to be physically handed back to ICB.

Not only does this free up your time to do other things, but it will also reduce your courier costs. WOW!

What is more?

  1. Students have immediate access to their portfolios which means no more queries coming in asking when portfolios will be delivered.
  2. It can be accessed anywhere and anytime – no more excuses from students not being able to work while away for the weekend or on holiday.
  3. Tests are completed online with an immediate mark – no more marking for  your team which allows them to immediately identify student progress.
  4. And to combat plagiarism – all test questions are random which means a student will not be able to tell another student the answer to question 3 for example. Question 3 will be a different question in student no 2’s test.
  5. Your lecturers and administrators get access to the students profiles on MACCI to monitor their progress live.
  6. And best of all – Digital portfolios are available at a reduced rate – Only R550 per portfolio, which means yet another cost saving to you.
