MSCSHub/MSDSHub should be investigated for what features to copy to a new site to make the site more useful, but without being too cluttered. After exploration new issues/feature requests should be made.

Rate My Professor has a decent design we could pull from.

Good point, I kind of like the tags that could be added, maybe a list of a twenty predefined tags people could select at most 3-5 from? And the other info, just of course have to be careful about feature bloat.

There are definitely some ideas we can pull from the UT MSOnline review site.

https://mscshub.com/

I especially like their course map feature. We can similarly have a specializations page, that does a better job of presenting available options.

driscoll42 commented 2 years ago

Something kind of like that for the ML spec, very rough draft. Probably would want to pull in some other courses (e.g. CP helping CV I think) but for a concept

Like the Course Map they have, putting some non-course prereqs, e.g. pythong coding, linear algebra, etc... to add

premk commented 2 years ago

Yes! This is what I meant.

driscoll42 commented 2 years ago

For the course maps I made #30 and assigned myself to it. Still worth keeping this ticket open for other ideas to copy/steal.

Not really a course review site, but I like that we can filter according to reviewer type on agoda.com.

Like in this case, it's filtering for reviews from solo travelers only.

It would be nice to be able to filter between reviews from students of different programs in OMShub. As an OMSA student, I'll probably find reviews from OMSA students a lot more relevant to me.

Maybe have people fill out a basic profile when they create an account? Then they won't have to indicate what program they're from every time they make a review.

I also like this recent ratings trend tooltip:

Recent review scores might be very different from the average review scores.

A keyword filter would be nice too, but will probably be much more complicated to implement.

I was referred to https://osu-cs-course-explorer.com/ for more suggestions

Closing as stale (i.e., lack of interest, ability to develop with current-to-long-term resources, etc.). Please reopen with appropriate justification if still relevant.
