myClass
is a simple yet modular tool for teachers to make records
about classroom activities and competence development.
The idea is to equip teachers with a handy tool, tailored
to small screen (such as smartphones) to enable them
to make records about relevant activities and indicators
of learning independent from other digital system. In
that sense, myClass is a competency-oriented electronic
classbook. The original and full version of myClass
has been developed in the context of a prior project.
In Lea’s Box we have reduced the functionality
and tailored the tool to the very concrete needs of
partner schools of the project. myClass offers features
for competency tracking and basic reporting features.
Of course, the tool has built in API towards the Lea’s
Box platform. myClass comes with the fully functioning
configuration tool for administrators.
Technically myClass is a MySQL and PHP-based tool so
that an installation is very simple and quick. myClass
is available open source under the Apache 2.0 license.
Instructions are included in the download package.

Version 1 allows
defining competency hierarchies and the evaluation
of competencies with 3 buttons (not evaluated,
competency available, competency not available).
Also the report is based on this approach.

» OLM |
| |
The
Open Learner Modelling (OLM) system of Lea’s
Box is a complex tool to model learners, conduct
learning analytics, and visualize the results.
The special strength of the OLM is that is opens
the analytics processes to the learners and that
it makes the result transparent; it allows users
to select the appropriate visualizations and to
start from high level aggregations and drill down
into the very details of evidences for learning.
The OLM system technical is a JAVA application
running on an Apache Server and connecting to
a MySQL database. The download package contains
detailed instructions. The OLM system is is available
as open source package.

» Flower App |
The flower app is a needful and graphically appealing
tool to realize and compare teacher-assessments, students‘
self-assessments, and external tests. The tool provides
students with a flower image to represent competencies
areas and their assessments. Teacher a provided with
reports of all their students, their self-assessments,
as well as their external test results. The tool is
intended to foster self-reflection, transparency of
assessments, as well as negotiations about assessment
and grading. The tool is available as open source
code that can be adjusted according one’s own
needs. Presently the tool is in Czech language and
illustrates the use on the example of 4 subjects (English,
Czech, Maths, and meta-competencies).

» Canvas Import |
Canvas is one of the leading commercial Learning
Management Systems. More and more organisations use
this tool to deploy learning and training materials.
For those who use and work with the Lea’s Box
system it might be a useful option to import data
from Canvas. This, however, is not completely straight
forward since Canvas does not allow a direct link.
A workaround we developed and used during the project
is an import tool. In fact this is a set of php procedures
to parse the csv export from Canvas and to place the
information in the right slots of the Lea’s
Box database. These function are available freely.
They can be adjusted to your server configuration
in the file config.php.
