AY1920 Semester 2 CP3108: Staff Dashboard (cadet-frontend)

The aim of the Staff Dashboard project is to make the administrative workflow easier for the staff over the course of a semester.

The three main components of the Staff Dashboard Project are:

Avengers Leaderboard

The Source Academy does not have way for staff to keep track of each avenger's grading progress and this is a very important information for staffs to know over the course of a semester as it allows for staffs to intervene should any Avenger fall behind in terms of grading.

As such, the Avengers Leaderboard provides a UI which keep tracks of the number of ungraded/submitted Missions/Quests for each Avenger.

Pull Requests

Changelogs

  • Added a new tab Dashboard which displays the grading progress of each Avenger.
  • Added a fetchGroupOverviews request method to fetch the overviews of each group. The overview contains the id of the group, the group name and the name of the group's Avenger.
  • Added a groupOverviews field in redux to store the aforementioned overviews of each group.
  • Added the UPDATE_GROUP_OVERVIEWS action to update the groupOverviews field whenever the overviews are fetched.
  • Added tests for the aforementioned actions/methods.

Assessment Uploader

The previous workflow for uploading assessments was very inconvenient, as feedbacked by the professors. The workflow involved uploading the assessment files to a bitbucket repository and the backend only pulls from this repository every hour. This means that assessments cannot be uploaded immediately to the Source Academy. On top of that, once assessments are open, they cannot be changed, not even a minor typo fix can be done without directly accessing the database.

As such, the Assessment Uploader also called the Ground Control provides a UI where the staffs can upload the assessment files anytime they want and it will be immediately parsed and uploaded into the backend database. The Ground Control allows for staffs to make changes (with certain constraints) to assessments that are already open. Staffs can also choose to delete or to publish/unpublish uploaded assessments. Published assessments will be viewable by both staffs and students while unpublished assessments are only viewable by staffs.
