Data Driven User Requirements Specification in the UNITE Project.

Abstract

The talk describes the process of user requirements specification in the UNITE project. The UNITE system - an integrated system for authoring and delivery of high quality eLearning activities for the secondary school students - consists of three main components: Software Platform, Pedagogical Framework and Learning Scenarios. The unique needs of the UNITE project demand a specification process that is capable to capture not only traditional software related user requirements but also pedagogical and learning scenario requirements, as well. A “data driven”, “bottom-up” approach was chosen as only capable to addressthese specific needs.
