About project:

Web-based exercise sharing tool with

reputation system - The goal is to create a web

based application for e-learning, in which students

can share solutions to exercises and vote the

solutions proposed by other students. The students

earn points for quality solutions and thus reach

higher status in the learning community (simple

reputation system).

About project:

We present an application to e-learning of basic

reputation system techniques, developed with the

aims of increasing the motivation and level of

interaction among students, and helping the

students to learn from each other, such that each

one can reuse (at different levels) a solution

proposed by another, and possibly spot some

mistakes found there.

About project:

Our main goals are:

to increase the motivation in doing exercises and

activities

to increase the collaboration and sharing between

students

to increase critical thinking (while analysing other's

solutions and looking for errors) and thus engage

students in Learning Objectives at the highest

conceptual levels of the Bloom taxonomy

The SOCIALX system allows three

types of users:

Teachers create courses, add exercises to topics of

their courses and “endorse” a solution by stating if

it's correct or wrong.

The administrator enables new teachers.

Students browse courses, exercises and solutions

and add votes and new solutions.

User Interfaces

The main page is the same for each type of user and

contains the login box.

After a succesfull signing in some features will be

available only for certain type of users. For

example, only the teachers will be able to upload

courses. The unavailables actions will differentiate

form the availables by inactive buttons.

User Characteristics

The typical user must have minimum computer

knowledge in order to use this application (no

software development skills required) but because

this application is developed on a web platform and

request registration/login for any type of user, at

minimum computer knowledge will adding

minimum knowledge of browsing on internet.
