Meeting Notes 04_25_18

Daniel K. Hunter edited this page Apr 27, 2019 · 1 revision

What's next, what's not completed:

Required things:

  • A catch-all issue exists in the github
  • Issue with badges
    • if a student completes a quiz and gets a badge, it's currently hardcoded that the badge was issued in 2018
      • There wasn't a year table at the time when the badge model was created.

Possible things:

  • Usability & styling:
    • no empty state when no book is selected. Rich text vs simple text

Time constraints limited the UX/UI to just the students' role.

Possible extension path:

  • Making a coach role:

    • coaches would have their own account
    • coach accounts can specify who their students are
      • coach accounts can monitor students' quiz history
    • coaches could make their own quizzes
      • these quizzes could remain private to their student group
      • these quizzes could be shared with other coaches
  • Expand the analytics consumable by students (and potentially others like coaches and admins)

    • Currently, a student's past progress isn't really available
    • For a student role, being able to tell whether a specific quiz has already been taken would be a nice feature (probably needed for MVP?)
    • Score on quizzes? (this may be harmful to participation - worth asking domain experts/Lowell)
    • ("Friends" attribute to student's role, allowing them to share badges received or quizzes done with one another)
  • More than 3 badges?

DevOps

  • Currently hosted on heroku
    • load testing not done
    • it is noted in the docs that the project will eventually need to get off free DB plan there
    • we should explore hosting on linode

Project Handover

  • Original work:
    • team of 7
    • active period: late Sep - Christmas 2018 (a few updates around March 2019)
  • Dan's request to original team:
    • Place any implementation details or technical issues they had in an issue on the github
      • e.g.: DB challenges
  • New team access
    • Xeon Li & David added FCC Philly members on the call to repository as contributors:
      • Dan
      • AJ
      • Adam
      • Vip

Next Steps:

  • Create initial github issues
  • Reach out to Lowell with updates
  • Assign roles to free code camp contributors
