+\section{Introduction}
+
+Coursebook as the name suggests is like an open online book which is accessible to both students as well as professors. Coursebook is an online discussion forum between professors and students. Coursebook also facilitates the professor to float courses which he/she will be offering to instruct. Students after successfully logging in, are able to view the registered subjects as well as the subjects currently offered by different professors.
+
+A student can request the respective professor of course of his choice to join the discussion forum for that subject. The student will be added to the discussion forum of that subject after acceptance by the professor.
+
+A student can add new topic to the discussion with the option to include the professor in that topic or not. After adding a topic all the students registered in that course will be able to participate in discussion. Professor can also add topics which will be accessible for students registered for that course. Each message is associated with two options of agree or disagree. This options are useful for consensus among students. 
+
+
+ 
+\section{Motivation}
+
+Problems and needs are the best motivators for any project. In the era of digital communication, finding perfect time slot suitable according to everyone's schedule is almost impossible. This motivated us towards developing a discussion forum which is accessible from any browser any time. This will suffice needs of students and professors.
+
+Presently discussions takes place on social media applications. The same social media applications are used for entertainment purpose also. This multipurpose functionality of social media applications, many times leads to important informational messages being lost among random memes and entertaining content. This motivated us for a dedicated discussion forum for colleges and universities among students and professors.
+
+Sometimes it is necessary to have a discussion among students for a stable consensus or filtering requests before including the professor in the discussion. The present discussion forums do not support this type of facility to exclude the professor from a discussion topic. The need of this facility motivated us to have a discussion forum providing this facility to the students.
+
+The current discussion forums or Learning Management Systems show the courses in the student window even after withdrawing the course. This makes the student window teeming with subjects which are not useful for him/her. This motivated us to provide a facility which removes the withdrawn courses from the student window instantly after the student withdrew a course.
+
+Many a times the messages are of polling type which requires the answers in agree or disagree types. In the current discussion forums such polling is handled by replying to the respective message. This creates an overhead as for each message a new instance has to be created. This motivated us for providing options of agree and disagree which counts the yes-men and naysayers.
