Final Project Idea

30 Mar 2022

Overview

The Problem

Students often have a hard time understanding which classes transfer to which in-house institution within the UH System. Let alone, understand the articuation agreements between these schools that help bridge students from 2 year to 4 year, or graduate and above degree programs. There is also the fact that these schools actually have different tuition rates per credit/fees, etc. Another determining factor is the reviews of professors and courses/classes from prior students which could be taken into account when looking at taking instruction from particular sections.

The Solution

Use dataset from UH system class availability, articulation agreements, course transfer database, degrees/programs, online distance learning courses, UH course survey, and the out of network rate my proffessor website to help piece together a one stop shop for helping students better comprehend the full picture when making decisions of which professors, courses to take based on class information/surveys, and rate my professor/surveys. Also, keeping in mind the portrayal of articulation agreements, and tuition costs.

Mockup Page Ideas

Use Case Ideas

Students can piecemail specific courses and even class schedules they see fit taking into account courses that are offered at different times, locations, instructional methods, and that these schedules can have different campuses in the same term, granted information based on the transer database.

Beyond the Basics

Need datasets and authorization from UH System to implement data from various UH portals to feed website. Need a Rate My Professor DataSet (maybe 10 year history pertaining to UH System campuses).
