The Network supports Internet and Internet-less environments. In both cases, the participant's experience is the same. The only difference is the amount of time when all contributors will see the same picture, in case of the Internet, it will happen in live mode, for Internet-less cases, after synchronizing all school servers.
The Network supports Internet and Internet-less environments. In both cases, the participant's experience is the same. The only difference is the amount of time when all contributors will see the same picture, in case of the Internet, it will happen in live mode, for Internet-less cases, after synchronizing all school servers.
The particular technical implementation is tailored by the following decisions:
* Using Web technologies to implement the front end;
* Keep front end as a local Web application on a client side, it sound converse regarding the 1st decision but this decision is based on:
** Local Web application serve only one user and are much simpler than singular applications that are intended to serve thousands of users simultaneously,
** Having simple and clean designed (see the previous point), it will be easy for doers to learn, change, reimplement the front end.
* Implementation should be decentralized to support off-line workflow.
