Opencast Matterhorn Project Announcement
UC Berkeley and ETH Zurich are delighted to announce the launch of Opencast Matterhorn, an international open source software project designed to ease the recording, processing and distribution of academic content for institutions around the world. Using a communal Webcasting platform, educational technology experts and programmers from 13 partner institutions are developing a system to improve automated video and audio production for course lectures, events and other forms of online knowledge-sharing. Opencast Matterhorn is funded by grants totalling $1.5 million from the William & Flora Hewlett and Andrew W. Mellon foundations.Published 1 year ago

Opencast Matterhorn Design Studio Team 3
Design Studio team presentations from the Opencast Matterhorn team meeting in Zurich, Switzerland. Sept 25, 2009. A design studio is an activity which merges user-centered design and agile development. The project team members (including designers and non-designers interested in the process) work together to create several different rough designs for a particular scenario. They usually create the designs after reviewing models and knowledge gathered during previous user research, but may also bring in their own subject matter expert knowledge to the process. The team then critiques & discusses the designs, and ideally also merges them into one design concept to move forward. Because we didn't have the time for a whole day session at the Zurich meeting (which is recommended for design studios), we were not able to perform the merging step. However, Allison & Judy plan to complete this work as part of their work on the Admin app conceptual framework.Published 10 months ago
