Use this page to make note of any QA issues found in the new Atlas II maps (added 3/11/2008).

  • energy transformations map missing misconceptions - added
  • DNA and inherited characteristics misconceptions missing last two paragraphs - added
  • Duplicate benchmark displayed in http://strandmaps.nsdl.org/?id=SMS-MAP-0049 - SMS-BMK-0031 and SMS-BMK-0033 - fixed
  • overlapping strands (last two) - http://sms-dev.nsdlib.org/?id=SMS-MAP-2122
  • overlapping strands (first two) - http://sms-dev.nsdlib.org/?id=SMS-MAP-2231
  • overlapping strands - http://sms-dev.nsdlib.org/?id=SMS-MAP-2312
  • 2nd strand is truncated - http://sms-dev.nsdlib.org/?id=SMS-MAP-2379
  • Bad characters: the division sign is different in the image of the benchmark and in the full text given in the bubble it looks like Ã- in the image part - http://sms-dev.nsdlib.org/?id=SMS-MAP-2264&bm=SMS-BMK-0591 and also http://sms-dev.nsdlib.org//?id=SMS-BMK-2275&bm=SMS-BMK-2275
  • SMS-BMK-0848 and SMS-BMK-1982 are the same BM. 
  • Fixed Strand issue in 'Detecting Flaws...' map.  The ordering of the strands was missing.
  • New issue with 'Detecting Flaws..' map - only first five strands are displaying.
  • Some misconceptions data doesn't show up in csip explorer. Related to extra \r\n.  Some also do not included sequenceNumber="" in <Conception> field - fixed
  • grade levels associated with the 'detecting flaws..' map lists all grades rather than the specific grade ranges in the strandmaps.sql file. SMS-GRD-2555 to -2561 - fixed
  • ('SMS-STD-0027','SMS-STD-0038','Is Part Of') This entry can possibly be deleted.  SMS-STD-0027 should be SMS-BMK-0027 but ('SMS-BMK-0027','SMS-STD-0038','Is Part Of') already exists in the db.- deleted
  • Faulty standards data- example: http://sms-dev.nsdlib.org/?id=SMS-MAP-1200&bm=SMS-BMK-1702 I looked at the sql file and this seems related to a typo in front of the 'Content Standard' portion of the NSES standards.  Specifically, the separator ???sep??? was entered as ??? - fixed (SC)
    • 32 standards had '#st???Content Standard'
    • 133 standards had '#si???Content Standard'
    • 15 standards had '#hn???Content Standard'

    • 10 standards had 'Understanding about science and technology' as opposed to 'Understandings about ....'
    • 22 standards had 'Understanding about scientific inquiry' as opposed to 'Understandings about...'
  • This benchmark is stranded in space - http://sms-dev.nsdlib.org/?id=SMS-MAP-2554&bm=SMS-BMK-0852 -This issue is related to the report Detecting Flaws in Arguments in the bottom of this page - Qianyi
    • Also found in Detecting Flaws in Arguments map - vol II pg 113 and Graphic Representation map - vol I pg 115
    • should be connected to SMS-BMK-0851
  • This benchmark is stranded in space - http://sms-dev.nsdlib.org/?id=SMS-MAP-2554&bm=SMS-BMK-0848
    • It does belong to this map -should be connected to SMS-BMK-0851 and SMS-BMK-0855 -This issue is related to the report Detecting Flaws in Argumentsin the bottom of this page - Qianyi
  • SMS-BMK-0851 and SMS-BMK-0855 are not visible in Detecting flaws in arguments map -This issue is related to the report Detecting Flaws in Argumentsin the bottom of this page- Qianyi
  • Does this release include Materials Science map?  It's not showing from Designed World chapter: http://sms-dev.nsdlib.org/?chapter=SMS-CHP-1037 -DONE- The Materials Science map has been added to the Design World chapter - Qianyi - (SC) - Still not displaying. This map is cataloged to SMS-CLS-1173, which doesn't exist.  Needs to be cataloged to a cluster with the same name as the map and follow the incremental id scheme and keywords - http://sms-dev.nsdlib.org/?id=SMS-MAP-1604 - fixed - added cluster details to SMS-CLS-1173 - called it materials science and used same keywords as map
  • Classical Mechanics map has only two strands but display makes several benchmarks look like they are not a part of either strand:  http://sms-dev.nsdlib.org/?id=SMS-MAP-2323  -In the map visualization, all benchmarks which are under the strand name or on the right side of the strand name belong to that strand- Qianyi
  • In Historical Perspectives chapter: http://sms-dev.nsdlib.org/?chapter=SMS-CHP-1094 - Moving the Continents map appears twice with same map id: http://sms-dev.nsdlib.org/?id=SMS-MAP-2355
    • it is listed under two clusters/sections SMS-CLS-2353/SMS-SEC-1102 (Extending Time) and SMS-CLS-2354/SMS-SEC-1104 (Moving the Continents) This is true: in the database, it belongs to both clusters- Qianyi - I think it is listed twice because it is cataloged under both clusters/sections -  the atlases say BMs come from both sections. (SC)
  • Maps that Don't Load

--------------------------

  • The physical settings chapter lists two Weather and Climate maps. -DONE- This old map link to the chapter has been removed. -Qianyi SMS-MAP-9030 is the culprit...I think SMS-MAP-1698 should be the real one. Wasn't quite sure how to go about eliminating ALL instances of MAP-9030... mf

  • Note on rendering the visualizations (from Francis on 4/10/08): Scientific World View map is really interesting and seems to be correct, but if you look closely it really isn't and, once again, the data/BM connection returned by the service is correct. I have noticed that (the "rule" is) if the link is A-C on map 1 and it's A-B-C on map 2, the latter shows BOTH the indirect A-B-C link and the direct A-C link. In the case of the Scientific World View map, the link between the BM "Scientific knowledge is subject to modification..." and the BM "New ideas in science are limited by the context..." seems to be interrupted by the BM "From time to time, major shifts occur...," but it really isn't. If you look closely, there are both a direct, A-C arrow/path and an indirect, A-B-C arrow/path. This is because the indirect path occurs on another map, "Scientific Theories" (Vol. 1), thus (correctly) following the "rule." The arrows connecting A-B-C just happen to be perfectly in line with, and lying directly on top of that connecting A-C. This could very well be a recurring one issue...
