E1526. Responsive web design for Expertiza

Introduction to Expertiza

Expertiza is a large project developed as a combined effort of students and faculty using the Ruby on Rails framework. The main advantage of using Expertiza, in an educational environment, is for the instructor to introduce peer reviewing among the students. Expertiza allows the instructor to create and customize assignments, create a list of topics the students can sign up for, have students work on teams and then review each other's assignments at the end. Expertiza supports submission of almost any document type, including the URLs and wiki pages.

Expertiza is supported by National Science Foundation under Grant No. 0536558. Additional funding from the NCSU Learning in a Technology-Rich Environment (LITRE) program, the NCSU Faculty Center for Teaching and Learning, the NCSU STEM Initiative, and the Center for Advanced Computing and Communication.


Problem Statement

Despite an amazing set of functionality Expertiza offers, there are numerous parts of it that could use a more stylish look and an improved user experience. The goal of this project is to use both Bootstrap and AngularJS to improve the look of the entire Expertiza including the representations of buttons, tables, and other elements. Certain changes in design will also improve the efficiency of the web app when it comes to the amount of time it takes for a page to be loaded.
