Slidewiki Alphatest

We successfully applied for the Slidewiki Tender to evaluate the Slide Wiki. We proposed to import material from the Interdisciplinary Modules and to test the different functionalities of Slide Wiki during that import.

The project was subcontracted by the Project “Slidewiki” funded under the EU Grant Agreement 688095 and did run from May 2018 to October 2018 (prolonged until December 2018). Tasks involving students within a formal context were done primarily through the semester (April – July), other tasks – in particular translation of the slides to different target languages) – were scheduled for July – September but had to be postponed since the Slide Wiki translation facilities were only available since August 2018. We finished the active work on the project until mid of November and spent the remaining time and efforts on writing our reports.

Main goals of our proposal

• Add decks from the presentations given at the lectures, seminars, interdisciplinary talks and project seminars
• Translate presentations to other languages
• Test the different functions of the platform
• Collect a detailed evaluation report
• Create issues about the different problems we faced with during our tests
