LimSee3 Trialling- Paris, January 24, 2008 |
|
A LimSee3 trialling was jointly organised by ePrep and INRIA Rhône-Alpes at Lycée Henri IV, in Paris, on January 24, 2008. On this occasion, ePrep CoP members were invited to build a multimedia module, including texts, pictures, video and audio recordings, thanks to the last version of LimSee3, a multimedia authoring tool based on extensive use of templates and adaptable user interface developed in the framework of the PALETTE project.
This trialling took place after several “design-in-use” sessions involving PALETTE researchers and ePrep CoP members for the production of a real multimedia history course for “Hypokhâgne” students at Lycée Henri IV. An example of such sessions was the recording of the course at Lycée Henri IV, on October 17, 2007
Thirteen participants attended the LimSee3 trialling on January 24.

PALETTE Participatory Design in action
The two days seminar centered on the use the Amaya tool and the SweetWiki service organised on 8 and 9th October in Liège was a great success. It offered the opportunity to mediators and validators of PALETTE's CoPs, members of three CoPs, developers and pedagogical partners to concretely live the PALETTE participatory design approach in a faithful way to what was envisioned at PALETTE's kick off meeting, twenty months ago.
