• The form inputs will be stored in a database.

• Unit test this form, database, and redirect if possible

Tasks:

Title: As a faculty member, I want to be able to look at past semesters’ syllabi so that I can reference and reuse previous syllabus data

Justification: This step will help relieve time spent on the website editing and copying/pasting needlessly and to allow a more seamless experience in producing syllabi in a quick and efficient manner.

Tasks:

• #26

As a user, I want to see a wizard form that will allow for easy and clear input.

As a user, I want to be able to recover my password if I forget it

Title: As a faculty member, I want to indicate whether the syllabus I’m creating is for an accelerated semester (Summer/Winter) or standard semester (Spring/Fall)

Justification: This step is to account for any truncation of material between 16 week courses (Spring/Fall), 6 week courses (Summer), and 3 week courses (Winter). For example, taking a course schedule from a previous spring semester course and applying it to a winter course is not very sensible without significantly squeezing assignments together.

As a department head, I want to be able to put department-specific information that all professors use on the site.

As a faculty member with an account, I would like to have a profile page that I am redirected to once I am logged in

• #33

• View faculty member's corresponding database entry on profile page (which will later be created by the login app)
• Create links of buttons that transfer to the profile editing page and the syllabus creation webapp

Title: As a student, I want to be able to look up any syllabus

Justification: This step is so that any student can find the correct information about the course that they am registered to take.

Issues:

• #57

• Learn Django and integration into Python

• Investigate integration of backend Django/Python to frontend

• Only a user logged into the corresponding account can modify their own page
• Create a separate view for users that are not logged in to view a faculty's profile without the faculty view (the faculty view having links for syllabus modifier and profile modifier)

Title: As a department member, I want to be able to have my own account so that I can edit department information

Justification: This step will allow department information to be uniform across all syllabi. This story also includes university information such as OEI or academic integrity

By the end of this story, there should be a user account that has the ability to edit information

As a faculty user, I would like to see the syllabus once it is created, and ideally, see it updated while filling out the syllabus form (similar to Overleaf format).

• Implement bootstrap for cross-platform front-end
• Dynamic addition of office hour form fields
  • Requires a new multivalued attribute (which is a separate model with a foreign key)
• View dynamically added fields in templates

• Implement bootstrap for cross-platform front-end
• Corresponding apps are Faculty Login and Syllabus Search
• Connect successful Login redirection to Faculty Profile

Title: As a teaching fellow or teaching assistant, I would like to be able to edit the professor's syllabus as needed.

Justification: A teaching fellow/assistant would need to be able to add their office hour times and contact information as needed so students can reach out to them for help.

Create CSS for all of the pages UMBC theme so all of the pages have the same format.

Title: As an administrator, I would like to see a hierarchy of permissions

Justification: This step is so that only a certain permission can change OEI information. Likewise, only a certain permission can change department information.

Title: As a faculty member, I’d like to copy information from an old syllabus or enter new information to create a new syllabus

Justification: This step shortens the syllabus creation process as repeated material does not have to be retyped. Additionally, required information is automatically added (Department Required Technology, Title IX, etc.).

Title: As a faculty member, I want to be able to preview the syllabus as I make it

Justification: This allows for a smoother editing process because any changes or immediately apparent and anything needed to be removed is easier to visualize.

• Learn appropriate webdev technologies (HTML5, CSS, etc)

This tasks focuses on making tables for the users and syllabi

Adding CSS to upload syllabus page and making it more user friendly

Title: As a developer, I want to be able to store data in a database.

Justification: This step will allow developers to be able to access data easily throughout the project.

• #20
• #26

As a faculty member, I want to create a syllabus via an interactive wizard, which helps guide the faculty with creating sections of the syllabi.

As a faculty user, I would like to create a syllabus in a form-like format, similar to google forms or mailchimp.

As a faculty member, I want to be able to edit my profile using a form with different pre-determined sections such as Name, Office, Email

As a professor, it is imperative I can import PDFs of prior semester syllabi to the website for storage

Tasks:

• #17

As a user, I want to be able to see what kind of account privilege I have

Title: As a user, I want to land on a home page that lets me search for syllabi as a guest, or log into a faculty account

• #31
• #52

As a user, I want to be able to see the data that I input to be displayed in a PDF format. I want to be able to update as I input information

Title: As a faculty member, I want to be able to have my own account so that I can edit my profile and syllabi

Justification: This step will allow for faculty to save personal information so that when creating syllabi, they do not have to re-enter personal information that is relatively constant regardless of the course. These accounts will be created using their umbc email address.

Personal information can include the following:
Name, Contact info, office location, office hours, etc

Additionally, a personal faculty account will allow faculty to edit previously made syllabi or syllabi that are under construction.

• 25

Title: As a faculty member, I would like to know when OEI and the Department changes their information

Justification: This will allow the faculty to know when OEI or their department information changes so they know the changes and how the syllabus is updated (This change may not take place until the end of the semester/blackout period).

As a faculty, once the data is submitted via the wizard, I would like to see the data formatted in a PDF based on the IS Syllabus Template.

Create links or buttons that transfer the user to the syllabus searching page or webapp, or to the Faculty Login page or webapp

Title: As an OEI faculty member, I would like to be able to put information that professors cannot change

Justification: This step will guarantee that the university policies are uniform across syllabi regardless of department or professor. The policy information will be greyed out but included in the form such that professors can see the information without being able to modify it.

As a faculty member, I would like to import data directly into the wizard
