JetPack for Learning Submission

(download)

Project Abstract

An annotation system that uses JetPack infra-structure and introduces
a concept of expression widgets. The model leverages the browsing
experience and JetPacks are used to support learners to annotate using
Web language, given a live session - let's say a lecture given by a
professor. The model is suggested initially as a rich annotation and
collaboration framework where students can interact with a variety of
Web-based widgets. It explores various communication forms such as
text, canvas-based drawing, SVG, MathML, and also some interactive
scenarios where teams can build together. The annotated resources are
organized and kept using simple wiki pages with less rules to the
server and more focus on possibilities for team-centred conventions.

Notes:

This project was submitted to the JetPack for Learning Design Challenge organized by Mozilla and supported by MacArthur Foundation.
