Integration of Q&A Board with Course Management System

[VamsiRagnar]

Description: As a system administrator, I want to ensure that the Q&A board is integrated seamlessly with other features of the course management system, providing a cohesive user experience for faculty and students alike.

Justification: Integrating the Q&A board with the course management system streamlines access to course resources and enhances user interaction. It promotes consistency across different system functionalities, optimizing administrative processes and improving overall usability for faculty and students.

Acceptance Criteria:

1. The Q&A board should be accessible directly from within the course management system interface, without requiring separate login credentials.
2. Users (faculty and students) should be able to navigate between different sections of the course management system and the Q&A board seamlessly.
3. Course-related information, such as course materials, announcements, and assignments, should be easily accessible from within the Q&A board interface.
4. Users should have the ability to post questions or discussions directly from within the course management system interface, with the option to categorize them based on course topics or modules.
5. The integration should ensure that user roles and permissions are synchronized between the Q&A board and the course management system, ensuring consistent access control across both platforms.
6. The Q&A board should inherit the branding and visual style of the course management system, maintaining a cohesive look and feel throughout the user experience.
7. Integration should support single sign-on (SSO) functionality, allowing users to seamlessly transition between the course management system and the Q&A board without the need for repeated authentication.
8. The integration should be robust and scalable, capable of handling large volumes of user interactions and course data without performance degradation.
9. Error handling mechanisms should be in place to handle any issues that may arise during the integration process, ensuring smooth operation and minimal disruption to users.
10. Unit tests should be implemented to validate the functionality and reliability of the integration between the Q&A board and the course management system.
11. The implementation should be well-documented to facilitate future maintenance and enhancements.

Dependencies:

1. Access to the APIs or integration points of the course management system to facilitate seamless communication between the Q&A board and other system features.
2. Coordination with the frontend team to ensure consistent user interface design and user experience across both platforms.
3. Collaboration with the authentication and authorization team to implement single sign-on functionality between the Q&A board and the course management system.
4. Testing and validation of the integration across different environments and user scenarios to ensure compatibility and reliability.
5. Review and approval from project stakeholders before deployment to the production environment.

It seems this issue was inadvertently created again. As the original issue for the integration of the Q&A board with the course management system already exists, I'm closing this duplicate issue to avoid confusion and ensure we're focusing our efforts on the correct task.
