 | Be Careful If you're following the storyboards, due to time constraints, only the "build" path was selected for implementation in 2.6. Creating a site by import, copy, and template will be introduced in future iterations. |
1. Dashboard
1. My Sites widget
The link to create a new site can be found in the My Sites widget or in
the Join a Site page
2. Create a Site
Will pop up the wizard to create a site
2. Create a Site: Non-Course
*A non-course site is the same as a project site.
1. Course site/Non-course site
Select whether you are making a course site or not.
ToDo :
| Domain | Description | Work Estimate |
|---|---|---|
| Technical | Make the extra options (dis)appear for a course site | 8 hours |
| Total: 8 hours |
2. Site Name - Site Id - Site Description
This allows you to enter your site's name, unique id (used for the url) and
description
ToDo :
| Domain | Description | Work Estimate | Tracking |
|---|---|---|---|
| Design | Add the unique id field + design feedback on it | 12 hours | |
| Technical | Implementation | 16 hours | |
| Data Feed | Make data feed that accepts site name, site id and site descriptions and tries to save it | 2 hours |  create /site/new (see /direct/site/describe) |
| Data Feed | Make data feed that checks the existence of a site id | 1 hour | action /site/:ID:/exists |
| Total: 31 hours |
3. Go Back
Remove the Go Back button, because the intermediate screen has been removed too.
ToDo :
| Domain | Description | Work Estimate |
|---|---|---|
| Design | Remove Go Back button | 20 min |
| Technical | Make change in HTML | 40 min |
| Total: 1 hour |
4. Create Site
Creates the site and drops you into the newly created site.
3. Create a Site: Course
1. Subject/Course/Section
The first feed is simply meant to get the field information (variable and configurable in Sakai) for course setup. This will not be called if not setting up a course site. Choices for the fields may be not set.
NOTE: This will probably actually have to be 4 separate feeds (term, subjects, courses, sections) rather than one
ToDo :
| Domain | Description | Work Estimate | Tracking |
|---|---|---|---|
| Design | Investigate whether these fields are general enough and in what extent it needs to be customizable | 8 hours | |
| Data feed | Data feed that return the available subjects/courses/sections | 4 hours | see /direct/course-data/describe for details |
| Data feed | Data feed that takes site id, site name, site description and subject/course/section | 4 hours | |
| Technical | Implementation | 16 hours | |
| Total: 24 hours (Incomplete est.) |
2. Approver's Email and Special Instructions
Remove for now. If an Instructional Designer sets up the course site, he can change
the site's owner in the permissions screen once he is done.

Also, it should be noted that this is a sequential thing that works like so: Pick the term THEN pick the subject THEN pick the course THEN pick the section (or alternatively it allows this data to all be entered manually)
