This is part 8 of the series; part 7 is here.
We've been making good progress on the education software platform, and the core of the system is nearly complete. The main remaining tasks fall into four categories; user interface improvements, web site graphics, performance tuning, and testing. The next couple of weeks will be dedicated to spiffing up the UI using various AJAX widgets, which should be fun. There are quite a few widgets to choose from these days, and I'll blog about whatever we decide to go with.
The goal of our company is to provide free, high quality education to anyone with Internet access. The software is designed to work in both supervised and unsupervised learning environments. It uses a Wiki-approach for the creation and evolution of education materials, but with some special twists. Will this approach be successful? The only way we'll find out is to launch the product and see what happens! Based on our current rate of progress, this will occur in Q2 2006.
