Assignment History
(This Seller has recently been shortlisted or contracted for the following people4 assignments)
- SCORM Testing: We have produced a programme as a CBT in Macromedia Director. After a few years of use we were asked by our client to convert this so that it was able to be used in an LMS and so it had to be SCORM 1.3 compliant. We have done this but we need an indepent check carried out, against some notes from the LMS service provider to make sure that it is 1.3 scorm compliant.
- I require assistance with actionscript and a small website that I have developed myself for a client. I have experience using flash but as iI am predominantly a designer my knowledge of Actionscript is limited so i need help on this and many potential future projects. The exact problem with this current site is the ability to print the text of a page which is scrollable and not being able to print the selected area.
- E-Learning Producer: E-Learning production needed for a training module for UK university. The presentation should have the capacity to be scorm compliant to fit with Moodle but should also be able to be used in the classroom as a teaching tool. The script is ready as a word document - the subject is equality and diversity and we are looking for someone who can assist us with creating something which is interactive but also complies with as many accessibility guidelines as
- Freelance Developer: Freelance Developer (candidate must live within a 20 mile radius), experience to include HTML, Javascript and CSS
- Creation of animated presentation: We are looking for someone to help us build and edit and animate a self-running/ animated demonstration of our online spend analysis software system called the Observatory. The demonstration would actually be run by one of our directors and we would then need someone to capture, edit and annotate it. We would like to have the demonstration self-running but with an opportunity for interaction by the users. The demo will also need sound and commentary put on top of it, which could be turned on
