Project 1: Core kiosk and progress tracking

• A staff member signs up students electronically, capturing their personal information and library card ID.
  • The staff member selects which applications (Lexia, etc) will be available to the student.
  • Accounts for the learning applications (Lexia, etc.) still must be created manually.
• Students sign in at the lab computers with their username and password.
  • Only the applications designated as available to that particular student will be accessible.
  • Students must sign in to each application separately, as they do currently.
• Automatically, at a scheduled interval (probably nightly), the AppTrac system collects progress information about all students from the learning applications, and updates a central database with this information.
• At any time, staff members may access the following reports:
  • Student report: contains progress information and hours for all applications a student is assigned to
  • (What other reports do we need?)
  • The reporting interface will be password protected to ensure student confidentiality
• There is an automated or mostly-automated procedure to update the HPL Access database with student information collected by the AppTrac system.
