Project TutorCall
Project TutorCall is a suite of client applications I developed for my software engineering capstone project. The suite was developed for Grand Rapids Community College's Open Computer Lab to provide students a more technology-centric method of requesting help than simply raising their hands.
TutorCall, Tutor Client
A WPF (Windows Presentation Foundation) window, containing a list of all tutors currently active in the system, as well as miscellaneous controls for common tasks.
TutorCall, Student Client
This window utilizes a pair of WPF Expander controls to toggle between a F.A.Q. list and a set of controls for entering a custom question.
TutorCall, Message Window
This is a window used by both the tutor and the student client to display broadcast or system messages.
TutorCall, Tutor Client Login Window
Tutors are required to supply simple credentials to log into the Tutor client. This was a requested feature to add some basic accountability into the help-request process.
TutorCall, Help Request Alert Window
Tutors are presented with one instance of this window for each active help request. It will list the workstation the student is at, as well as the question and subject of the question.
TutorCall, Help Request Processing Window
Once a student has submitted a help request, the initial window closes and students are presented with this window until their request is answered. They also have the option of canceling their request.
