Main Documentation Page For The "Techproject" Activity Module

You may come to this documentation through the automatically generated link at the bottom of some screen of the "techproject" module.

The Technical Project Manager Module (Overview)

This Activity Module is a collaborative constructivist workplace for elaborating in a pedagogic context a project-driven learning activity using the standard IEEE specified "successive refinement". It provides tree-shaped friendly editors (5 actually) allowing writing and constructing the several descriptions that are produced and will document all steps of a project activity. Although its description model is mainly oriented towards "software development" project types, its information structure could be exploited each time a "Requirements" -> "Deliverable" process is consistant.

Some concepts

Screens of the Technical Project Manager

Several screens will allow manipulating the distinct descriptions that will be produced while a technical project is being processed. the whole information set might be collected and layout for outputing e.g. a "printable" document, using any appropriate XSL transform.

Screen for editing Entity Units

Views

Views are screens that allow several displaying and sorting strategies, for project monitoring.

Teacher's tools

Other information
