Index of Demonstration Programs

20 September 1998 - using HTML with background graphics and clickable images to show how sound and graphics can be used. Very rough. Apologies for my poor pronunciation.

• Lesson 1: Scots Gaelic.
• Lesson 2: Portugese

22 September 1998 - as above, but uses an image map instead.

• Lesson 3: Click on my cousin to here the sound, anywhere else in the picture and you get a different sound.

28 November 1998 - using HTML, tables, images, radio buttons and JavaScript to produce a self-marking IT1 test.

• IT1 Hardware Recognition Assessment: the page is designed to be printed on one sheet of A4 paper, so that the student can show the result to their lecturer. If the student fails the test, they are told what answers they got wrong. In this test, a 100% pass rate is required. This test is still in draft form.

1 February 1999 - layout outline, used in meeting of 2 February 1999.

• Prototype 1 - a demonstration for viewing by the client. A copy of the files were taken to the meeting of 2 February 1999, and some relevant screen-shots (in case a browser was not available).
• Prototype 2 - some improvements on version 1, but used as a cut-off point for the visit of the external examiners on 27th May 1999.

June 1999 - final betas. Testing will take place at the end of June, ready for final tweaks and the write-up.

Prototype 3 - earlier pre-test version. Everything seems to work.

Prototype 4 - Restructured version of prototype 3. This was the version that was tested.

July 1999 - final(ish). Testing was carried out, good feedback from students.

Prototype 5 - version that was submitted with thesis.
