| KNOWLEDGE SHARING PLATFORM |
| |
| Our Client wanted to develop a Web-enabled
application for its client, to allow sharing of
learning resources between various Educational Authorities.
The application was intended to enable teachers and education
professionals to add & refer to online learning resources
such as Articles, Courses, and References etc. Icreon developed
the web enabled solution for our client. The
application provides multi-level access to students, teachers,
and licensee users. Each licensee manages its own users along
with the categories of learning resources to be stored and shared
among users. In addition, the application can be deployed within
an Intranet setup by individual authorities to manage their
internal learning resource network, without connecting to the
primary network on the Internet |

| |
| Business
Requirement |
| Our client wanted to develop a Web-based
application using which, Regional Educational Authorities (REAs)
and City Learning Points (CLPs) could allow their users including
students and teachers, to add, modify and access learning resources,
thereby enhancing their own knowledge, awareness and performances. |

|
Advance search features |
|
Cross-authority sharing of Resources |
|
Customizable interface for individual licensees |
|
| |
| Technologies used in developing this web application are: |
|
| The solution was required to be developed
as a Web-enabled application for the cleint. The application would be used by educational
authorities such as REAs and CLPs as a ‘Learning Resource
Sharing Service’ within the realms of their individual
licenses by their users - Teachers and Students. The Users would
follow a hierarchy of access levels to utilize the application.
The solution was also intended to be deployable at the Intranet
level to be accessed within restricted domains. |
| |
The solution is a service application
that uses the Internet to share and manage learning resources
provided by educational authorities. Teachers and Students,
the Users who access the application, belong to the educational
authorities that subscribe for the service.
Educational authorities need to obtain a license in order to
use our client's network services. A user license entitles
the licensee (educational authorities), to offer teachers and
students, access to the network. The licensee can create a
User Account and assign a Username and Password to it. The assigned
user can use this information to login to the network and
access its services, depending on the Rights assigned. Teachers,
students and other users such as the parents of such students,
can access the network using the public access
area for learners. Users can browse and search for resources
based on a specific selection criteria. Teachers can also be
Authors and Editors within the specified license area. Authors
can create learning resources within the network, while the
editors can review and publish the resources. At this level,
users have their own password-protected accounts.
Licensees can manage their users and categories of learning
resources that are required to be stored and shared amongst
users. The solution provides the facility to configure the
user interface of a particular licensee with unique color codes
and a logo that represents the educational institution. The
licensee can ask the Global Administrator of the
network to enable this facility. In addition, licensees can
create a copy of the complete application and use it over their
Intranet setup. This copy has a single authority of operation,
supported by the licensee’s technical support staff. Within
the Intranet setup, the application is disconnected from the
client's service. Our client creates this version of the
application by copying the original application and modifying
it to operate in a customer specific environment.
The solution is extremely user-friendly and requires minimum
technical maintenance. To allow scalable Web-based access, the solution
has been developed using ASP 3.0 (front-end) and SQL Server
2000 (back-end). The application is hosted within a Windows
based environment on the IIS Web Server. |

 |
| |
| |
| Summary |
| The solution provides comprehensive
features for easier management of resources over the network.
As a service aimed at sharing learning resources among teachers
& students, the application offers subject-wise cataloguing
and advance search features for easy access. With these features
and more, the solution has turned out to be an advanced Knowledge
Management solution allowing educational authorities to make
their resources available across distances to facilitate collaborative
learning processes. At present, the solution is actively used
to manage learning resources, enabling a secure access to resources
over the Internet. |
