Usage

Syllog usage

In order to use Syllog, you should:

• Have some students who are learning Aristotelian Syllogisms
• Have a web server which has been set up according to the [Installation] Wiki page.

Student sessions

You should ask your students to open a web browser and point it to the URL which you have created during the [Installation] process.

If, as part of the [Installation] process, you created a self-signed code-signing certificate for signing the Java applet, your students will see a security warning when the open the URL.

You should simply instruct the students to OK the security warning, i.e., accept that the Applet gets the access it asks for.

Failure on the student's part to accept the security warning will result in their answers not being logged.

Teacher backend log access

Teachers can see the dumps of answers available by doing the following:

• Log into the Django admin interface with the credentials used when setting up Dango as per the [Installation] page: http://syllog.youruniversity.edu/admin/
• Then, in the same web browser session, you can download answer files via:
  • http://syllog.youruniversity.edu/logsyllog/dump/
  • http://syllog.youruniversity.edu/logsyllog/dump2/
    You should, of course, substitue your own URL here.
• You can then open the .csv files in either OpenOffice Calc, LibreOffice Calc, Microsoft(R) Excel(R) or some other spreadsheet-like or statistics application for further processing.
