CSC/ECE 517 Fall 2017/E1793. Help students find teams to join
Introduction
Problem Statement
For team-based assignments, it always takes time to find suitable team members. We already have bidding, which could help you to join in a team with other team members hold similar bidding preferences. However, you may not be satisfied with automated team formation and want to switch to another team. In this project, we will build a new feature to help students find teams to join.
Currently, there are 2 ways to find other students to join your team:
1.If your team is not full, you could invite people by inputting his/her UnityID. It will send an invitation to certain user. If s/he accept your invitation,s/he will leave original team and join your team. 2.You could create an advisement by clicking “Your team” link and then clicking “Create” link under “Advertisement for teammates” section. Then your advertisement will appear the last column of the signup sheet page with a horn icon. In this way, all classmates could see your advisement. Someone could send a request to join your team. If you accept their request, s/he will leave original team and join in your team.
It would be better for students who do not have team yet or whose team is not full yet to be able to see a list of students who don’t already have teams. So too for instructors.
Task Description
Fix the second way to find other students to join your team.
Currently, after you create an advertisement, the horn icon does not appear in the the last column of the signup sheet.
For student end:
Display a list of students who do not have a team with invitation links in student_teams#view page You could invite students to your team by clicking invitation links. If s/he accept your invitation,s/he will leave original team and join in your team. It will be more straightforward than typing UnityID.
For instructor end:
Display a list of students who do not have team with invitation links in teams#list page
Write feature tests to verify your modifications:
Create team_invitation_spec.rb file in spec/features folder
UI Design
We will add horn icon at the last column of the signup sheet page if there is someone who creates advertisement looking for teammates.After clicking this icon ,it would lead students to another page which show this advertisement to students,then student could send request to join their team.
we will also display a list of students who do not have a team with invitation links in student_teams#view page
