This page provides a description of the Expertiza based OSS project.

About Expertiza

Expertiza is an open source project based on Ruby on Rails framework. Expertiza allows the instructor to create new assignments and customize new or existing assignments. It also allows the instructor to create a list of topics the students can sign up for. Students can form teams in Expertiza to work on various projects and assignments. Students can also peer review other students' submissions. Expertiza supports submission across various document types, including the URLs and wiki pages.

Problem Statement

This project concentrates on the use of expertiza assignments as conferences/journals. Using these assignments, people can submit their papers and get reviews for the same. The focus of this project will be to enable a particular conference participants to create an expertiza account and teams for conference submission by minimizing the inputs required from the application admin/instructor.

Task to be Accomplished

• Instructor should be able to create new link for Authors to join the Conference Assignments
• Author should be able to create account by clicking on the link. If author doesnt have an account
• Author should be assigned to a newly created team and should be able to create a link for co-authors to join the team.
• Co-Authors on clicking on link should be able to join author's team and should be able to submit work for the assignment.
