Class SessionNotes

All Implemented Interfaces:
ImageObserver, MenuContainer, Serializable, Accessible

public class SessionNotes extends JPanel
Freeform session notes editor for general observations and reflections.

Provides a simple multi-line text area for educators to record unstructured notes about a student session. This complements the structured assessment pages (Braille, Abacus, etc.) by allowing qualitative observations, anecdotal records, and contextual details that don't fit into numeric scoring fields.

Typical Use Cases:

  • Recording behavioral observations (e.g., "Student showed increased frustration with Nemeth fractions today")
  • Documenting environmental factors affecting performance (e.g., "Noisy classroom due to construction")
  • Noting equipment issues or accommodations used (e.g., "Switched to Braille Sense due to BrailleNote malfunction")
  • General reflections or instructional notes for future reference

Data Storage:

  • Notes persisted via Database.saveSessionNotes(int, java.lang.String) to ProgressSession.notes column
  • Associated with a SessionNotes progress type and session ID for consistent querying
  • JSON export: StudentDataFiles/<student>/Sessions/SessionNotes/SessionNotes-<sessionId>-<timestamp>.json
  • No plots or reports generated (text-only data)

The shared JLineGraph component is present for UI layout consistency but remains empty (session notes are not quantitative data). This page does not implement listener interfaces as it operates on static student/date parameters provided at construction time.
