Simplified Project Form (applies to entire form)

[robynlloos]

Applies to both editing a project and create a project form (making the two consistent and more clear)

Remove fields: activity type; course info (is this okay with SLA. If not fix multiple courses entry); project status; semesters; location; remove second mission area (HOLD for committee Review)

Order of form includes:

• Project Name
• Engagement Type
• Community Partners
• Campus Partners
• Primary Project Mission Area (see comments below)
• Secondary Project Mission Area (may become Project Sub-Mission Area) (see comments below)
• Start Academic Year
• End Academic Year
• Total Number of UNO Students / Hours (two separate fields)
• Total Number of K-12 Students / Hours (two separate fields)
• Total Number of UNO Faculty/Staff / Total Number of Other Participants (two separate fields)
• Description, Project Outcomes, and Related Links

[Keristiena]

1) Before asking Total number of K-12 Students/hours, ask: does this project involve K-12 students? If the answer is yes, then ask k-12 student number/hours question.

2) Include Semester in the AY questions (two separate fields on one line)

[robynlloos]

Make the project description field required and change the field display name to: Description, Project Outcomes, and Related Links

[robynlloos]

@Keristiena please confirm which of the following is correct for the project form.

1. Primary Mission Area > Sub-category (with as many sub-categories as needed) OR
2. Primary Mission Area > Secondary Project Mission Area > Sub-category (with as many sub-categories as needed)

[Keristiena]

With both i think we should go to a model of 'Check all the apply'. Students, can you do this in a way that is easy for the enduser?

[robynlloos]

Per our meeting today my understanding is that we decided the following. @Keristiena please look at questions below.

Projects:

• Primary Mission Area (required field) Question: @Keristiena Do we still want users to have the option to select more than 1 Primary Mission Area?
• Remove Secondary Mission Area
• Sub-categories (check all that apply) Question: @Keristiena will this be required?

Community partner:

• Primary Mission Area (required) Question: @Keristiena Do we still want users to have the option to select more than 1 Primary Mission Area?
• Secondary Mission Area (optional) Question: @Keristiena Do we still want users to have the option to select more than 1 Secondary Mission Area?
• Sub-categories (check all that apply) Question: @Keristiena will this be required?

@Keristiena Can you please provide answers to the questions above?

[robynlloos]

Only applies to projects: Primary mission area (based on subcategories other applicable mission areas would be connected that apply) Then subcategories

@divyakorrapati After meeting, want to do the wizard. Need to keep Activity Type. Save as draft. No review.
If a wizard is done, it is going to be three tabs: Create Project, Partners, Project details. viii. Intro statement explaining the form. Like a note at end add text more project info is coming. ix. Allows to add and continue adding project data. Similar to what Manu suggested. Step 1., 2. 3. This give more availability to add a new community partner. Want to make sure can add community partner and get back to this page. Would like to be able to add campus partner and have it add to the project right away if could. If not, then should be ok.
x. If wizard is not possible, then a way to save draft.
xi. Wizard so much more effective for users.

@divyakorrapati @dmishra2904 Also need to add new field for Lead Faculty/staff. This is optional and can be multiple added.

@divyakorrapati @pkanaganti Client feedback would like to have error messages clearer. Project form data validation should happen right away, not after user hits submit. E.g. no half people can be involved (student or k12 students) Currently it states a Please enter valid data.
If this can't happen, please let me know.
