cs4249 Assignment 1

This repository contains a basic interface and instrumentation to perform an empirical evaluation of Marking Menus and Radial Menus. You are expected to modify the code to perform the following tasks

1. Implement a new Independent Variable
2. Implement a new Dependent Variable
3. Modify tracking to record participant id, consent, pre-survey and post-survey questionnaires.

You may fork this repository to your own Github account and clone your forked version for development. This will also help you use Github pages for hosting if you plan to conduct experiments online.

Project Structure

The interface is a static web project. However because of cross origin restrictions you will need a web server to run the experiment. Either turn on Github Pages(https://pages.github.com/) for your forked repository or setup a local server of your choice.

Ideally, you shouldn't need to edit any of the files under "/external" unless your experimental design requires modifications to the menu implementation. Please avoid tweaking parameters of the menu such as color, size etc. To maintain consistency across the class we will use the default parameters as provided in this repository.
