CSC/ECE 517 Fall 2021 - E2168. Testing - Scoring & Grades

Project Overview

In Expertiza, it is currently possible to check the “Allow self-review” box on the Review Strategy tab of assignment creation, and then an author will be asked to review his/her own submission in addition to the submissions of others. But as currently implemented, nothing is done with the scores on these self-reviews.

There has been a previous attempt at solving this problem, but there were several issues with that implementation:

• The formula for weighting self-reviews is not modular. It needs to be, since different instructors may want to use different formulas, so several should be supported.
• There are not enough comments in the code.
• It seems to work for only one round of review.

Objectives

Our objectives for this project are the following:

• Display the self-review score with peer-review scores for the logged in user
• Implement a way to achieve a composite score with the combination of the self-review score and peer-review scores
• Implement a requirement for the logged in user to self-review before viewing peer-reviews
• Assure that we overcome the issues outlined for the previous implementation of this project
