GitHub Release

Your team must create a GitHub release of your source code. The release must follow these instructions.

Demo Video and Video Report

Your team must submit a video demo and accompanying report. Your video and report must follow these instructions.

Up-to-Date Requirements and Design Artifacts

Your team’s user stories, definitions, and database design diagram must all be kept up to date, and the latest versions must be submitted as part of the milestone. These artifacts will be graded using the previously provided rubrics. Note that your team’s wireframes do not need to be kept up to date.

Task Plans and Reflections

All work contributed to the project must follow the process described in the Project Workflow Instructions document. This process includes full task planning and outcome reporting.

Teammate Reviews

At the end of each iteration, each team member must provide a review of each other team member. Instructions and forms for performing these teammate evaluations will be communicated by email near the end of the iteration.

Grading Rubric

The grade for each development milestone has a team component and an individual component.

Important! Beware of the following rules that have severe penalties if not followed:

• Follow the Workflow: You must follow the workflow such that all your individual work is submitted as pull requests (PRs) and the PRs you submit are clearly work done by you. You will earn 0 points on any milestone (includes both team and individual grade components) that doesn’t follow this rule.

• Build Upon the Base App Provided: Your team must build up from the base app provided – no replacing it. You will earn 0 points on any milestone (includes team and individual grade components) that doesn’t follow this rule.

Team-Grade Rubric

Below are each of the grading items for this milestone, along with their weights. If an item is not submitted at all, 0 points will be awarded for that item.

    • 8 pts - Borderline progress, barely meets expectations
    • 7 pts - Fair progress, less progress than expected, but not by a lot
    • 0–6 pts - Poor progress, significantly less progress than expected, points given depend on the grader’s assessment of the deficiency
