Introduction

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

Whenever someone is attending any seminar they have to submit their paper for it. Seminar is created as assignments in Expertiza backend. In today's scenario, participants just submit a google doc and share it with instructor. Then instructor has to download the paper and add it in expertiza assignment. Not only that, instructor has to create participants who is author or co- author in expertiza. All these things are done manually, which is not a good way. The following tasks is to be accomplished in this project:

  • Instructor should be able to create new link for Authors to join the Seminar Assignments
  • Author on clicking of link should be able to create account if not already present.
  • Implemented feature to show number of tags entered and total number of tags in Assignment page.
  • Implemented feature to show tagging counts dynamically when student change tagging type in score page
  • Added RSPEC testcases for testing changes done for tagging

About Tagging

Expertiza has a feature of peer review where other teams can provide feedback on student's work. There is also another feature of "Tags", where a student can answer if the feedback provided were helpful or not. Tags can vary from assignment to assignment but the main motive of it is to provide information on whether the feedback provides helpful information for student's assignment. The picture below shows an example of tags.
