1.2. System Personnel

The personnel involved in the eClassroom project are organized in the following groups and subgroups:

  1. end users
    1. instructor
    2. in-class students
    3. out-of-class guest
  2. project manager
  3. system developers
End users are those who use the eClassroom for its intended purpose. The owner of the lecture file does any administration required. Instructors can create a lecture and copy it later to another machine in a classroom. They need to create some roster to allow users to access the lecture. Anyone in the roster is considered an in-class student, the roster can also be used to take attendance. If an in-class students is logged in a machine eClassroom will be launched and the lecuture will be displayed on their screen. Anyone who logs in after a lecture has started will recieve a pop up window propmting if they want to join the current lecture. Finally, anyone can use the eClassroom as an out-of-class guest if the owner of the lecture file adds them. End users will be able to save a personalized copy of the lecture.

The project manager is Gene Fisher. Through a series of interviews we have ensured that his needs were satisfy.

The system developers are: Brandon Clarke, Lauren Tsung, Jesus Martinez, Nick delMas, Pete Tucker, Tyler Bringham.

The E-Class is available as public domain software for use by outside parties. The project directory is http://www.csc.calpoly.edu/~ptucker/projects/eclass
