Overview:

The client of this application is DARPA. They have asked TopCoder to build a modern web-portal for education in Science, Technology, Engineering, Math (STEM) and especially focused on Computer Science (CS) education. The CS-STEM web-site will be dedicated to middle and high school students in USA and allow them to learn a lot of interesting topics in a user-friendly environment, which at the same time is productive and professional. Users will earn achievements, awards and prizes on the web-site.

We assume CS-STEM portal will be like a new entire TC website, but specially dedicated to attracting and holding the interest of middle-high students (ages of 13...18) in computer science related topics.

You can see the current website here: http://nonamesite.com

A previous contest has implemented an Activity Tracking API that can be used to track users in each activity, like when the activity was accessed, how often, the achievements reached, and how long each user session with the activity lasted.

This contest will take the services exposed by the activity tracking API and will generate a cohesive AJAX API that we can use for all future HTML5 games to interface with the Activity Tracking API.
