TrainingServer

Training Server Project

This project is a complementary project to One Laptop Per Child Australia and Sugar Labs Training Activity [1]. This projects aims to help us understand how users progress during their training, using the Training Activity.

How it works

Each time a user finishes a new training section, a report is sent automatically, by the Training Activity to the Training Server. In this way we obtain valuable feedback on users progression and also tasks statistics. Once the server receives reports from a new user, it will send a welcome email with a confirmation link. This helps us to validate users authenticity.

Concepts

• Trainees refers to the users of the Training Activity.
• Tasks refers to each of the individual actions user must complete in each training section.
• Confirmations refers to the email confirmation data, that reflects the confirmation status.
