ProjectList (ECHO Redevelopment)

ECHO is an online project list and allocation system. Tony Sutton would like the ECHO system to be redeveloped to allow named users to have administrator rights to enter students and staff into the system and to remove or edit the same.

He would also like to add additional features that would increase functionality and alleviate some of the student stress associated with the system use. Some examples include:

* allowing students to choose a shortlist of 5 projects and see how many students are choosing different projects, to aid strategic decisions

* allow a traffic light system of project allocation under consideration, so that students can save time chasing almost allocated projects

Additional topics will emerge from current focus group work being conducted by Tony Sutton and Dr. Sue Morón-García.

The system continues to be improved.  For more details on recent changes, check the ProjectList development log.

Progress: 100%

The ProjectList system is now finished, and is being used with 5 departments across both the Engineering and Science faculties.
