RB Editor

(ReadingBug Editor)

071406

Introduction:

This program is designed to edit the configuration files needed by the ReadingBug program.  The editor is not yet complete and the documentation may not match the program.

Configuration Design:

There are three levels to the configuration files; Class, Workbook, Exercise.  The Class file will contain a list of students and the workbooks they are to work on.  The Workbook contains a list of exercise.  The Exercises will be defined latter when the editor becomes available.

Class:

The class is the list of students that will be using the program.  Future versions of the program will have class selection on start up.

  1. To edit the Class select F1 or from the File menu select Edit Class.  Notice that most of the buttons have been grayed out.
  2. Select either Open File or New File.  A file dialog box will appear.  Either select an existing file or input a new file name.
  3. New Entry
  4. Remove Entry
  5. Change Password
  6. Change Workbook

Workbook:

The work book is a list of exercises.  Future versions of the program will allow multiple workbooks to be assigned to each student.

  1. To edit the Class select F2 or from the File menu select Edit Workbook.  Notice that most of the buttons have been grayed out.
  2. Select either Open File or New File.  A file dialog box will appear.  Either select an existing file or input a new file name.

  5. Change Exercise

Exercise:

Currently there are only a few exercise types.  In the future there will be many more.  Each exercise will come as a pair, the exercise and the review.  A record will be kept each time the student starts an exercise or review.  Each exercise can consist of images, text, and sounds.  The format of the data will be of an open format so any one can create or modify an exercise for their usage.
