Add a section called GR4 Computer Prototype to your project's wiki page.  This section should provide instructions for accessing and starting up your computer prototype, both for your classmates who will be evaluating your prototype and for the staff who will be grading it. 

Specify the platform and software requirements for your prototype:

QuickPick is browser based, and currently tested on Google Chrome (Windows 7, OSX) and Safari (OSX). There are no further software requirements. Recommended Resolution is at least 1440x900. 

Give brief, step-by-step instructions for starting up your prototype. For web sites, a hyperlink to the site is sufficient. For JAR files or executables, say how to install and start the program.

Describe which parts of the prototype are shallow (incompletely implemented or canned), so that your evaluators know what should work and what shouldn't.

Currently, we have implemented the four year course planner for students in 6-3. You can move the classes around, select generic classes (like completing your LAB requirement with 6.172 or 6.813). You can search for classes (though we have only manually inputted 60 classes) by name, by professor, and by course number. In terms of the task analysis from GR3- we decided to focus on the primary task of planning your four years at MIT. (Universal You). This focus came after a discussion with our TA, and a desire to do one thing extremely well, rather than replicate functionality already implemented by other sites. There is course information for each of the courses listed. There is no concept of saving, or user accounts just yet. We are still missing information on a lot of classes, but this is just a backend modification. 

Your prototype must remain frozen (no changes) and accessible at this location for two weeks after the due date.

The only change we might make is adding more classes to be added/searched. This task currently is manually written, and we'd like to come up with an automated way of doing it. I hope you will find this modification acceptable. 

Your prototype should be downloadable as a single file. Package multiple files into a ZIP archive for easy downloading.
