E1648. Adding past due assignments to the task list

This page provides a description of the Expertiza based OSS project for Fall 2016.



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

The following tasks required completion in this project:

  • Adding past due assignments to the task list.
  • Highlighting the next immediate due date of an assignment.
  • Correcting the due date of finished assignments.

Current Implementation

  • The 'tasks not yet started' section does not show the assignments that are past the deadline but have not been completed by the student.
  • The stage deadline for the finished assignments is incorrectly displayed.
  • The next immediate due date for an assignment is not highlighted.
Solutions
  • We have displayed 'Late Tasks' under the 'Tasks not yet started' section which refers to the assignments that are finished but have not been completed by the student. A 'More' button has been added in case the number of tasks is greater than 10.
  • We have highlighted the next immediate due date for the student which saves time for him/her.
  • We have corrected the stage deadline of the finished assignments.
