We have launched projects for the development of a software application environment and testing in practice, developed at the AIP Institute of AIP Methodology. The software environment consists of several products that provide a full cycle of creation and distribution of adaptive nonlinear content.
To create unique scenarios using the AIP methodology, we are developing a convenient visual object-oriented programming environment ADANEC Editor, which allows you to create adaptive nonlinear educational content, as well as human-machine interaction scenarios of various purposes and complexity.
The programmable scenarios of human-machine interaction created in ADANEC Editor are a combination into a structured graph with nodes in the form of entities of Block objects and configurable conditions that perform operations according to a given algorithm based on data from related Blocks or groups of Blocks. The environment also allows you to integrate blocks from third-party developers into scripts.
The main application area of the developed scenarios is adaptive nonlinear educational content with the possibility of using the user’s environment, including the following:
- Linear and non-linear educational content (Courses, Lessons, etc.);
- Scenarios for evaluating the actions and improving the skills of employees in the field (AIP Qualification Framework) with the connection and use of data from the employee’s environment (IoT components, equipment controllers, sensors, sensors, video cameras, etc.).
For project management and teamwork, we are developing the ADANEC Repository platform, which connects users to all their files and objects in the system. The platform provides secure storage and work on files, allows you to work together on objects between users, reuse objects of other users, as well as publish ready-made content directly to the distribution system – Content Store.
Content Store is an exchange of published and verified content. The Content Store is also intended for B2B distribution of educational content.
To publish, it is enough for the user to set the cost, mark it with tags and add a description to the publication so that it can be easily found by other Content Store users. All publications in the Content Store are subject to mandatory moderation, which ensures high-quality standards of the content provided.
An important question is where can I launch content using the AIP methodology? Taking into account a large number of MOOC-type platforms and the wider possibilities of our scenarios, we started working on a special environment for integrating content into ADANEC Integrator multi-environments. Integrator allows you to organize the user’s workspace on any type of device and even in a virtual environment, combining multiple environment interfaces into a single workspace-Multi-environment (Multi-space). Integrator is the user’s entry point for using all the features of the software environment from ADANEC products, which allows you to execute AIPs and human-machine interaction scenarios for various purposes on various devices.
Thus, the software environment we are developing will allow us to provide a full cycle of software for the development and distribution of adaptively nonlinear educational content with the possibility of expanding the functionality through new blocks and integration into almost any execution environment from browsers to virtual reality.
