Planning Stage 3 Activities
Meetings

Please answer each of the following questions as it relates to your activity.
1. Identify the course(s) the activity would be appropriate for.
- We are focusing on the Android app for OpenMRS (OpenMRS Client)
2. Briefly describe the activity.
- Expose student to the OpenMRS Android client and have them reverse engineer the design of the module.
3. How much time do you expect the HFOSS activity to take (# classes, # homework assignments, # lab activities, etc.)? Will the activity be completed in class or out of class?
- 3 class meetings to start. (75 minute classes) plus a homework assignment (and it that produces a good artifact, the design, then students have to interact with the community to get it accepted).
- Followup in-class activity to create a single high-quality design document that incorporates all of their designs and can be contributed back.
4. How does this activity relate to course goals/objectives?
- Creating a design is a course objective.
- They learn to evaluate a design based on standards for design.
5. What will students submit upon completion of the activity?
- This will include the architecture, UML of the structure (class diagrams). Also analysis of design-related concepts: coupling, cohesion. Perhaps identifying design patterns.
6. How will you assess the submission?
- Completeness
- Quality
- Correct notation
- Use of UML tools
7. List any question or concerns you have about implementing your activity.
- Prerequisite knowledge (Android).
- There are a variety of code-to-UML tools available; how do we know students won't use them?
8. What type of support will you need to implement your activity?
- Some android devices. And we will probably tap into The Community.
