front page Dikaios Cloud Enable Contact information Case: Hämeenlinna In 2010, an ICT development project was launched in Hämeenlinna, the purpose of which was to provide the means to develop the various aspects of school information and communication technology in a uniform manner: telecommunications network, equipment, software, content, network and support services and know-how. In this context, ways were considered to combine e-learning materials from different producers on a single online platform when the problem was the scarcity of sites and logos. Moodle was chosen as the platform because it had been used in Hämeenlinna since 2003. The problem was opening the interfaces of the service providers to make the login act as an SSO. This would be possible with username authentication across interfaces - that is, after logging in to the platform, one would be able to move freely from one service or learning material to another. Another goal was to acquire learning materials on a pay-by-use basis. Here, too, we are considering different solutions. Hämeenlinna's Moodle was and still is maintained by Mediamaisteri Group Oy. These needs were discussed with them and coincidentally in the spring and winter of 2011, Dikaios Oy was bringing exactly these tools we needed to market. And specifically in collaboration with the Media Master. We agreed to start a pilot project with these goals and tools. We organized a competition for e-learning materials for basic education, and the condition was to use the Moodle and Dikaios Repository service. Repository is a kind of cloud service node that can be used to measure and direct traffic within Moodle and from it to other online services. In this case, it refers to the work of teachers and students on e-learning materials both inside and outside Moodle through interfaces opened to the rest of the network. The commissioning was agreed for autumn 2011 in connection with the VESO Days training in schools. That's where it started. The Hämeenlinna AD network ( Active Directory directory service maintained by Seutukeskus Oy Häme ) and the Moodle platform maintained by Mediamaister together with the Dikaios Repository service offer: Teachers and students remember only one username and password for different services Only get the materials and services you need and use for Moodle Learning materials can be accessed directly from Moodle (without re-login) It has been possible to compete for the best value for money in terms of price-quality ratio by subject Easy search functions for courses and learning materials The “keys” to the visibility of the learning material remain with the teacher Student task reports centrally for teachers for assessment work Monitoring usage activity Invoicing for purchased learning material is based on usage activity. In these multi-stakeholder collaborative projects, one must always keep in mind the fact that the job is as good or bad as its weakest link. But I think the cooperation has gone damn well because we have had a constant dialogue with all parties. And if something has gone wrong, then the problems have been addressed immediately and there have not been many service outages. Dikaos is constantly striving to develop its service and make it as smooth as possible, even with end users in mind.
