CSC/ECE 517 Fall 2019 -E1974 Allow users to create an account and submit work to an ”assignment” Design

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

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

Assignments are created in Expertiza, we can assign participants to assignments they are participating in, and they can submit their work for it. In today's scenario, participants share google doc, authors and co-authors name with instructor. Then instructor has to make those authors and co-authors as users in expertiza, assign them to the particular assignment and the upload the the paper by that team. Doing all these things are mundane.

Task to be Accomplished

• Instructor should be able to create new link for Authors to join the Seminar Assignments
• Author on clicking of link participants should be able to create account if not already present.
• Author should be assigned to a newly created dummy team and should be able to create a link for Co-Authors to join the team.
• Co-Authors on clicking on link should be able to join the team of Author's and should be able to contribute on assignment.
