UU: User state
OK. I need thoughts on this subject.
User within UU has certain state in relation to each object he is
working on.
For example:
Student is solving a problem. Student is reading topic explanations.
Course author is writing something.
There are two ways to organize this in our data model:
1. Make model classes directly include this information. Thus we will create
A separate object for each user as they appear.
2. Organize things in a manner that's closer to what is in database:
There is a user object. There is a content object. Then there is a linking
object that binds them, and keeps user's state.
Any pros and cons to each of approaches any of you sees?
Any other ways to organize this?
