Engineering Studio uses your Loyola Microsoft identity to verify who you are and the semester roster to determine what you may access. The Studio does not maintain a separate password.
Secure by designLoyola SSO authenticates you. Course enrollment and teaching-staff assignments authorize you. GitHub is linked separately for engineering identity and repository evidence.

CHOOSE YOUR REVIEW
How do you want the senior board to engage?
You can ask questions at any time. The review type sets the purpose of this session, not a rigid script.
Select up to three related findingsThe board keeps this session coherent rather than trying to solve everything at once.
Board Review · the board chooses the agenda.Use the large Start Review button in the context bar when you are ready.
1
Understand the conditionAsk the senior reviewer when wording or consequences are unclear.
2
Work toward a positionUse coaching as often as needed; early phases are deliberately guided.
3
Discuss, refine, then recommendWhen a decision is needed, state the recommendation you are prepared to defend. Not every conversation needs one.
CURRENT ENGINEERING QUESTION
Can the team operate with visible ownership, workflow discipline, AI governance, and repository structure before serious implementation begins?
Think like a junior engineer in a review with senior engineers. You are expected to make the decision, but the board will coach you until the reasoning is strong enough to own.

YOUR ENGINEERING DECISION
⌬
Your engineering review starts here.
The board will use your team's evidence and coach you through one engineering move at a time. You may ask questions before you make a decision.
Reviewer is thinking…Reviewing your answer and the frozen evidence.
Review is live.Ask a question, answer the reviewer, disagree, or say you are stuck. Enter sends; Shift+Enter adds a new line.
Conversation modeTalk naturally. Ask a question, respond to the reviewer, or say what you are thinking. The reviewer will respond to the substance—not the button you clicked.
You can ask questions before choosing a posture.
Enter to discuss · Shift+Enter for newline Write in your own words. Grammar, spelling, and accent are not being graded.
Your recommendation is ready to state.The board believes the core reasoning is explicit. Record it only if this conversation actually calls for a decision; you may keep discussing or revise it later.
YOUR REVIEW HISTORY
Practice is cumulative
Early reviews may include substantial coaching. Over the semester, the board will expect more independent engineering reasoning.
No review history loaded yet.
MY REVIEW HISTORY
How your engineering judgment is developing
Your conversations are individual, but every review remains tied to the same frozen team evidence used at that moment.
MY TEAM
Team context
Team membership and repository evidence are shared. Your coaching conversations and learning state remain individual.
ENGINEERING EVIDENCE
See what the Studio found, how it connects, and where to ask for help
This is your team's evidence workspace for the current released phase. File names are clues, not proof: the Studio also considers equivalent evidence, GitHub workflow history, and project-specific artifacts that actually support the engineering claim.

The Studio shows relationships it can support from the frozen snapshot; it does not invent missing links.

DESIGN BOUNDARY
What this surface will never do
Autonomously assign the final course grade.
Rank students by lines of code or commit count.
Expose confidential peer reviews to teammates.
Invent repository evidence.
Give students a hidden “correct” engineering decision.
Add, deactivate, or move students without rewriting historical team membership.
REVIEWS
Engineering apprenticeship activity
Team evidence is shared; student conversations are private to the individual and authorized teaching staff.
ENGINEERING EVIDENCE
Frozen team evidence and longitudinal change
Inspect FACT observations, REVIEW interpretations, provenance, disputes, and phase-to-phase changes.
AI USAGE & COST
Token, cost, caching, and response health
Usage telemetry is operational intelligence, not student evaluation.
SEMESTER SETUP
Course, sections, roster, teams, and review calendar
Start from the COMP 330 lifecycle template, then adjust each section independently as the semester changes.
0 · Course term & sections
Create each semester once, then add one or more sections. Sections inherit the COMP 330 lifecycle template but keep independent rosters, teams, review availability, and date overrides.
1 · Section roster
Import the Sakai gradebook CSV. Only Student ID and Name are used.
2 · Teams
Create teams, then assign or move students. Changes preserve membership history.
3 · Review calendar & release control
Dates are proposed from the COMP 330 lifecycle template. Each section may override availability, due dates, and release state independently. Sakai remains the course deadline authority.
4 · Teaching staff
Add instructors, TAs, or reviewers by institutional email. Authentication and authorization remain separate.
5 · Term lifecycle
Archiving preserves all historical reviews, evidence snapshots, team membership, and usage records. It does not delete them.

EVIDENCE DISPUTE
Show the board what it missed
The reviewer can be wrong. Point to evidence in the frozen snapshot and explain why it changes the finding. If the evidence was added after the snapshot, the board will tell you that too.
