BACKGROUND Markers are an essential component of many courses. We would like to have a web-based tool for simplifying the marker application and selection process. PROJECT DESCRIPTION Course supervisors should be able to specify course relevant information, e.g., expected workload during the semester. Markers should be able to apply and submit relevant information, e.g., courses they would like to mark (in order of preference), grades, previous experience, current enrolment status, maximum workload, academic transcript and CV. Course supervisors should be able to select their preferred markers (order of preference). The tool should automatically assign markers to courses such that coverage of courses is maximized subject to certain requirements (e.g., grades). The marker coordinator should have access to all components of the tool and be able to overwrite any information and automatic assignment

背景信息

阅卷是许多课程的重要组成部分。我们希望有一个基于网络的工具，以简化标记应用和选择过程。

项目描述

课程主管应该能够明确课程相关信息，例如，学期预期的工作量。

阅卷人应能够申请并提交相关资料，例如他们想要阅卷的课程(按喜好排序)，

成绩、以前的经历、目前的入学状况、最大工作量、成绩单和简历。

课程主管应该能够选择他们喜欢的标记(优先顺序)。该工具应该自动分配标记课程，这样的课程覆盖范围是根据一定的要求(例如，成绩)最大化。

标记协调器应该能够访问工具的所有组件，并能够覆盖任何信息和自动分配

A Web-based Tool for Managing Tutors and Markers

Application process:

1. We have a separate application process for each semester – tool needs to define semester, i.e. year and SS (summer school), S1, S2
2. Marker/Tutor coordinator will input courses with the information:
   1. Estimated number of students
   2. Currently enrolled students
   3. Available tutor and marker hours
   4. Course coordinator (name, email)
   5. Course director (name, email)
   6. Needs tutors (y/n)
   7. Needs marker (y/n)
   8. Can pre-assign markers/tutors – if course covered, it won’t be visible to students anymore as a course they can apply for
3. Course coordinators can add details for their course(s)
   1. Currently enrolled students
   2. Number of assignments
   3. Number of labs/tutorials per week
   4. Convert marker to tutor hours
   5. Convert tutor to marker hours
   6. List Tutor/Marker’s responsibility for the course
4. Students submit an application (personal details, preferred course they want to tutor and/or mark). Personal details include:
   1. Academic record (pdf-file)
   2. CV (pdf-file)
   3. Name
   4. UPI
   5. AUID
   6. Preferred email

   8. Citizen or permanent resident (y/n) – if not, does applicant have a valid work visa?
   9. Enrolment details for the semester (degree / year - e.g. 2nd year BSc, 1st year PhD, etc.)
   10. Undergraduate or postgraduate student (add note that “postgraduate” means that student has already completed a degree)
   11. Any other TA/GTA contracts for that semester (yes/no – if yes, text field for description of contracts)
   12. Maximum number of hours/week they want to work (integer – minimum 5)
