[DG: Teaching & Learning] [Using Sakai] Sakai simplified tablet interface for children in hospitals

Mon Jan 23 06:02:33 PST 2012

Hi Beth:

We want to send to the community all the new RESTful services we have
implemented (we have done it for several tools yet) and we are doing it in
JIRAS for each tool or/and talking with the tool managers. We want that
services in next sakai releases. 

In the other hand... the tablet interface is the result of an expensive R&D
project and we need to sell it to hospitals or to any sakai user adapted to
their corporative image to have a return of the investment, so we don't have
in mind contribute that part of the code (yet) 

:( 

Sorry... I know this sounds bad in an open source community. As you know we
always try to contribute our developments if possible.

This is very cool -- can you submit a JIRA and a patch with the changes
needed? I don't have an immediate need, but would like to see this merged
into the Sakai code base if possible.

for children in hospitals”, as we have announced in the list time ago using
restful services.  This web interface (is not native) shows only the basic
tools of sakai in a very simple way to be used for children with a tactile
interface. The aim of the project is to use Sakai for children in Hospitals
and allow them to continue the learning in their rooms with a tactile
dispositive.

 you
can see Chuck’s book as background and the Spanish Sakai’s one too ;)

mobile tablet so it can be used in a University, college, enterprise

school room  for them, but sometimes children can’t move or can’t stay
enough time out of their bedrooms, so with this system, teacher in the
hospital can send tasks  and resources to them (teacher will use sakai usual
interface) and they can do it from the bed. There are several hospitals
using a tactile screen for each bed with a lot of services, one of them can
be this one. If Hospital don’t have those screens can use tablets as seen in
the video.

can connect to the system (with a standard Sakai interface too) and
communicate with the teachers. Those users are “student-related” so they can
view the work done by their son but not the work done by other students
(this is new in Sakai and in general in LMS’s, the “individual watcher
user”). You can define in this Sakai a hierarchy of users with parents and
sons. We have done other tools as “notes” tool where teacher can add
information about the students and select if parents can read it or not.
