Hello Dr. Sun,

I had few doubts regarding HW5 functionality.

1. For checking/unchecking checkpoints, we need to develop a plan page for every student right, Where we need to by default check the checkpoints already checked by the student in past, using the data from database.

2. This assignment deals with functionalities related to student role, so do we need to show a different page for student and a different page for admin? Or, can we just add few more links to admin's home page created in the previous assignment where the admin/student can see his own plan?

1. Yes.

2. Of course you need different pages for different types of users. Have you ever seen a website that shows admin functions to regular users?

But do we need to make that distinction in this HW5, that is decide whether a user is a student or admin and redirect them to their respective page. Because it is not mentioned in the Homework description.
