Follow multiple projects at once (main dashboard)

Hi @ermengolbota !

We’re glad to hear you like the Taiga’s way of thinking!

Presently the team is focused in developing TaigaNext that it would handle your requirements perfectly, as it’s as its core multi-project oriented.

But nevertheless, in the current Taiga, you can try two approaches that it may handle your requirements:

Epic stories: As you will probably know, there’s another type of story above the classic user stories called epic stories. It can group many traditional user stories, that it can be placed in different swinlanes (kanban) or sprints (scrum), that can also contain many tasks itselves.

You can try to use this three-level approach to emulate each of your student’s projects with an epic story, and each of your students’s stories with a traditional user story from that epic. Your students could also create tasks in order to solve user stories in the classic way.

This way you can benefit from quickly identifying the project a user story belongs to (as every epic’s user story has the common colored tag of its parent epic), and from the side “Epic menu” to read the detail of your epics, list their user stories, and check it overall (epic) progress bar (that can also be uncollapsed to check the individual progress bars of its user stories).

Reports: Another option you can try is to export the data from each of your projects from the settings menu (Settings >> Project >> Reports).
Later, you can combine thit data using a Spreadsheet of parsing the data in any other way (they are a plain .csv text file). Either Open Office or LibreOffice will serve your purposes.

We hope it serves!
