Introduction Carnegie Mellon University’s TRACES Lab (HCII/SOA) is exploring how to use emerging technologies to help spatially and temporally scaffold documentation practices in creative, constructive project-based learning experiences. Through a co-design process with Quaker Valley High School educators and administration, the project team has generated multiple proposals for connected technologies solutions to support documentation practices for their sophomore year Self Directed Learning (SDL) project experiences.
In the first quarter of 2021, we developed a browser-based system for Quaker Valley students to submit their SDL evidence and view their progress. This post provides an overview of the technical implementation and details some of the decision points, challenges, and potential improvements. Quaker Valley schools bases at least part of their IT infrastructure on the Google Workspace suite of tools. Thus, in the interest of development time/cost and integration with existing systems employed at Quaker Valley, we tried to leverage existing Google tools/services when when making technology decisions.
