Project

Add tests and educational games support to gvSIG Educa.

Details

Link to GitHub repository.

The main idea behind this project is to develop plugins which allows to create/play tests and educational games. Also generate documentation specially oriented to users without any programming knowledge.

The code will be mainly developed in Jython, an implementation of the Python programming language written in Java, throw the scripting module of the gvSIG desktop 2.x branch.

The developed tools will be used in geography and maps learning.

Schedule

Reports

Week 1 (May, 23 - May, 29):

What did you get done this week?

I started to develop the create test functionality of the plugin.

What do you plan on doing next week?

I'll try to finish the create test functionality on the first half, and develop the pack test functionality on the second half.

Are you blocked on anything?

I was blocked many times during this week, but no now.

Week 2 (May, 30 - June, 5):

What did you get done this week?

I develop partially the create test functionality of the plugin. My mentor (Óscar) show me that gvSIG already has a packing functionality.

What do you plan on doing next week?

I'll try to finish the create test and develop the play test functionalities of the plugin.

Are you blocked on anything?

I'm blocked with something, but my mentor is working on that. Surely tomorrow i'll have good news.

Student's Biography

Name: Carlos I. Colombana

Country: Uruguay

School and Degree: Faculty of Engineering (UdelaR, Uruguay), Cartographic Technician / Student of Computer Engineer.

I learnt about GIS, Databases, GNSS, Remote Sensing, Photogrammetry, etc in many courses offered by Faculty of Engineering (UdelaR, Uruguay).

Computing experience

On a day-to-day basis i use Windows 7 as operative system, but i also use Ubuntu occasionally.

I learnt about fundamentals of programming and scripting in Matlab / Octave, in a course offered by Faculty of Engineering (UdelaR, Uruguay).

GIS experience as a user

I’ve been working since February of 2014 at the Geomatics Department of the National Direction of Topography (MTOP, Uruguay) using gvSIG, QGIS and Kosmo daily.

GIS programming

I learnt about scripting in Jython on the 2014 edition of “Introduction to Scripting in gvSIG 2” MOOC offered by the gvSIG Association, through the gvSIG Training platform.

After the MOOC ended i’ve written scripts in the gvSIG 2.x branch to facilitate and improve some tasks at work.
