Project overview
It was an important prerequisite that good quality teaching resources were available at the outset of the project to enable a rapid take-up of the new GCSE’s. Twenty First Century Science approached Interactive Web solutions with a brief to develop a series of interactive CD-ROMS that could be easily used by both teachers and students alike.
We developed a unique solution that enabled bespoke HTML content to be viewed via a bespoke, branded browser. Developed with Macromedia Director this approach ensured that control was kept by the teacher during the use of the resources by students.
Two versions of the CD-ROM were developed for each topic:
- Teacher version – contains both the lessons and supplementary resources
- Student version – contains just the lessons
The solution was developed to run in both in full network or stand-alone PC mode.
What the client had to say
Elspeth Boardley, Publisher for Twenty First Century Science at Oxford University Press commented:
“I was particularly impressed with the commitment of the Interactive Web Solutions staff that were involved with the project. Their work on the design of the bespoke interface was very attractive and intuitive for the user, and the products have been well received by the market.”
