GUI questions/interface

This page describes the questions we'll ask in the TALL short course wizard GUI, mapping them to the IMS Content Package/Metadata? Infoset.

Page 1

Course title	cp:manifest/cp:organizations/cp:organization/cp:title	Also inserted into HTML
Author	cp:manifest/cp:organizations/cp:organization/cp:metadata/-[[br]]-imsmd:lom/imsmd:lifecycle/imsmd:contribute	We need to decide what different contributor roles we handle (e.g. Author, Editor, Content Provider).
Is this the only author on the course?	n/a	May not be neccessary - instead we could: 1) assume one author; 2) inherit that value throughout the heirarchy (lazily?); 3) pre-fill the field; 4) allow overriding of the field; 5) propagate overrides down the heirachy (lazily?)
Course Aim	cp:manifest/cp:organizations/cp:organization/cp:metadata/-[[br]]-imsmd:lom/imsmd:classification/imsmd:purpose	Add with imsmd:purpose of Educational Objective

As page one, plus:

• A treeInput representing the manifest's organization
• Zero or more "Add <item>" buttons (where <item> is an allowed child of the element selected in the tree)
• A Delete button(s)
• Move up/Move down buttons to adjust the heirachy

N.B. Add/delete/move up/move down buttons could be included once for the GUI page, or repeatedly - for each item in the tree.

Button behaviours

"Add <item>" button

• Whether an "Add <item>" button is presented is defined in wizard/init/structure
• The strings that replace "<item>" at different hierarchy depths are defined in wizard/init/structure
• Adds a child <item> within the selected element to the hierarchy. E.g. with the Course selected, there will be an "Add Unit" button; with a Unit selected, there will be an "Add Page" button.

"Delete" button

1. Requests confirmation of deletion of <item> (and any children)
2. Removes selected item (and any children) from hierarchy

"Move up" and "Move down" buttons

• Moves the selected item one position up or down between it's siblings - does not move between hierachy depths.
