Types of Users

Firstly, to understand which use cases that need to be implemented, we analyzed which types of users there are and how they interact with our system.

The primary users are students and their supervisors. They can interact quite similarly with the system:

• Create a new project

• Edit public information about a project

• Invite new members to a project

• Create new tasks

• Evaluate the tasks

However, there are differences between what students and supervisors can do. Unlike supervisors, students are not allowed to evaluate the project. On the other hand, supervisors should not be able to do tasks nor to upload project reports and slides while students can do those tasks.

After the students submit the reports, there will be judges whose responsibility is to assess these reports. They also evaluate the groups’ project oral defense (also called presentation). They should therefore be allowed to access and evaluate reports and slides of projects they are assigned.

During the process, academic assistants of each faculties should collect statistical reports of each project and print the results of the subject.

The system’s user categories can be summarized in the table below

Type	Responsibility	Ability
Student	progress the project	manage projects, manage and complete tasks, upload reports and slides
Supervisor	support the group and evaluate the project	create tasks, evaluate projects
Judge	evaluate groups’ reports and presentations	access and evaluate reports and presentation
Assistant	collect statistical report and evaluation	aggregate and export projects’ evaluation

In the system, we assigned users of each group a role: student, supervisor, assistant, judge.
