CSC/ECE 517 Spring 2024 - E2414 Grading Audit Trail

Problem Statement

NC state faculty members and students use Expertiza Open-Source Website to submit assignments, grade them, form teams, and among other features. The main problem statement for project E2414 is that there is no traceability on who was the instructor that assigned or edited a grade of a submission.

Program Objectives

Grading Audit Trail must be implemented with the following information to be stored:

   1. When an instructor assigns a grade, there needs to be an indication of who did it and when it was done.

   2. Comments previously provided by other instructors must also be preserved.

This information needs to be stored every time an instructor edits a grade / comments and clicks the save button. The grading audit trail can probably pattern off the submission records history on Expertiza. The submission record page can be reached by logging in as instructor -> Manage -> Assignments -> View Submissions -> History. At the minimum, a grading log entry must include the instructor id, assignment id, student id, grade comment and timestamp.
