Project Description:
(See attachment below for a full product overview).
My team and I are creating an ecommerce site, named TextbookTime.com. It will be a wrapper overtop of the Chegg.com textbook rental service. It will make connecting classes and their corresponding textbooks easier than it currently is.
All ecommerce sites currently require students to search for their textbooks via the book’s title; ISBN #; or author. TextbookTime.com will differentiate itself from the competition by allowing students to search for their book based on the classes they’re taking. In this way our site will serve as a more advanced book search engine for students entering college who know what classes they are taking, but not what textbooks they need for those corresponding classes. No engine of this sort currently exists on the web. Students are currently forced to wait until they receive their syllabus before they find out their classes.
