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 also sends automated emails to the instructor, reviewers and participants for most of the above mentioned activities.

Problem Statement

The following tasks were accomplished in this project:

  • Students should receive emails on account creation .
  • E-mails about reviews should direct the user to the page where the review is found.
  • Deadline reminders should include a link on where to go to perform the needed function.
  • Instructor notifications of where reviews disagree by more than a threshold # of points should point the instructor to the reviews that disagree.
  • Send out an email to the invitee when a participant sends out an invitation to another participant to join a team.
  • All activity on ad responses and invitations should be reported to the other party by e-mail.
  • Notify an instructor by e-mail when a student suggests a topic.
