May 2022 Update

Progress:

  1. Centered the “Go” and “Clear” buttons on the Kids-U site and moved them to the bottom of the selection box to avoid user errors
  2. Changed the “Site Coordinator” dropdown option to “OKM” (On-Site Kids-U Manager) on the staff page of the website
  3. Met with Shawn Weisfeld to gain a better understanding of the database’s functions, understood the disparity between the EPICS and Kids-U copies of the repository, and discussed ways to resolve it.

Goals for the Semester:

  1. Complete the poster and final report with project details, as well as provide complete information and references for future teams.
  2. Present our project to the partner and the judges, as well as discuss the progress we have made this semester at the EPICS exhibition
  3. Meet with Mr. Weisfeld to merge the team branch on a public repository with the main branch, fix any migrations and runtime errors, and archive the EPICS repository.

April 2022 Update

Progress:

  1. Met with our mentor, Terrence Jones, and discussed ways to fix the database sorting function that fails to display the students by grade in the correct order
  2. Gained a better understanding of the code and the database
  3. Found a user manual located on the website under “Help”, which eliminated the need to provide the partner with a handbook on using the database

Goals for April:

  1. Center the “Go” and “Clear” buttons on the Kids-U site and move them to the bottom of the selection box to avoid user errors
  2. Change the “Site Coordinator” dropdown option to “OKM” (On-Site Kids-U Manager) on the staff page of the website

Goals for Semester:

  1. Fix the sorting for “Grade Ascending” and “Grade Descending” to correctly sort the kindergarten students in the list
  2. Remove the edit page and replace it with the required fields on the edit page form

If time permits, we intend to create a forgot password function that will allow users to create a new password if they forget their previous one, as well as look into the online form.
