Requirements Discussion

~michael.appleby@yale.edu We've come up with some scenarios that this tool will need to address:

• Professor Smith wants to hold office hours for students in any of her introductory courses. The tool should allow for sign-up across Sakai sites.
• Professor Jones wants to meet with students for twenty minutes to discuss their term papers. The tool should allow for a number of one-to-one 'slots' within one meeting time.
• The German department's tutor can meet with up to three students at a time for conversation practice. The tool should accommodate one-to-X meetings as well.
• Professor Baker would like to hold a review session for the final exam, but needs to know how many will attend in order to book a room. The tool should allow for unlimited sign-up for a single session.
• Professor X logs in to Sakai precisely once a semester - to post a syllabus. He might also post his office hours for the term. The tool should allow for (1) recurring events and (2) events that do not require sign-up.
• A TF wishes to hold office hours for her sections only. The tool should be group aware.
• Professor Appleby would like to cancel office hours if no students plan to attend. The tool should allow sign-up to be closed at a designated time prior to the meeting.
