EL PROYECTO FEDENA

Foradian Technologies es la empresa creadora de un proyecto que ha cambiado la forma en que administramos la educación llamado "El proyecto Fedena". 

Foradian con base en India y formado por un grupo de ocho amigos de la infancia, tiene en sus filas a más de 40,000 instituciones educativas y cerca de 20 millones de estudiantes que actualmente utilizan la plataforma  educativa basada en un concepto open source.

Sin embargo, aun queda la incógnita de ¿Qué es Fedena?. A simple vista muchos pensaran que es una copia de la afamada plataforma académica "Moodle"  pero Fedena se ha ganado a pulso un nombre a través de sus excelentes características como su amigable interfaz gráfica, facilidad de configuración, asombroso soporte, así como la versión móvil que emite alertas y notificaciones de los procesos que se ejecutan en el sistema por otros usuarios.

How Google Glass is going to Innovate Education

Google has always been known for innovations in almost every area they could get their hands onto, and it is soon to launch its flagship product ‘Google Glass’. And the tech-savvies say, it's going to revolutionize the current educational trends. How? Let's read.

Google Glass is touted as the next big thing in portable technology. Poised as an eyewear and doing a plethora of things which don’t require any taps or navigation, it responds instead to voice commands, taking pictures with a wink, taking commands for search, share content, video recording, detect objects in front of you and look up related information like directions or maps. etc. The possibilities are endless though among all the possible consumers of Google Glass, the device has the potential to bring exciting new possibilities to teachers and students alike. 

Admit it, Google's Search is phenomenal. And the Glass will allow the student/teacher to stay connected to an interactive environment featuring online tools all the time. This could pave way to a leap into the future of educational system. Teachers as well as students can refer to topics related to their studies on the go. No fiddling through phones in the middle of the lecture; all you have to do is speak and voila...your search is done!

Students can record their lectures in real-time for future reference. The time saved on scribbling notes could be remarkable.

Google Glass could help students to create visually-rich projects and presentations. Students can shoot relevant videos and images with a wink. The same can be integrated onto their presentations via Google docs.

Learning new languages and speaking them could be done on the go with Glass coupled with Google's own Google Translator. Google Glass would be able to present text based translations in real-time.

Teachers could use Google glass coupled with facial recognition to take attendance and could be used to generate Student Information System. Just by looking at the student you will get access to his/her student records with details of academic and non-academic performance, attendance etc... Creating students reports, schedules and class timings for students is only the tip of the iceberg.

Distance learning could be made a lot easier than before with Google Glass. Webinars and such can be streamed directly onto your Glass than your smartphone or laptop so that its easy to be accessed anywhere, anytime.

The Glass could be used to set timetables for students along with information regarding the halls where classes will be held with details on professors to take the classes.

Google Glass in Education: The other side

While all this could be a boon in the education system, there are some cons of having Google Glasses at Schools/Colleges.

You must keep in mind that electronic devices are still prohibited for students in most schools; though, this is changing very fast. Students could misuse the Glass in a lecture in ways unimaginable. The distractions a smartphone causes in a classroom are well known, students wearing Google Glass will bring about a whole new level of the same.

There are many restaurants and business concerns already banning the use of Google Glasses as well as apps like instagram. This could also happen to Google Glass, being banned at all major concerns/colleges/universities. 

Not to mention a certain invasion of privacy. 

Like with any electronic device, prolonged usage of Google Glass can cause health issues mainly damaging eyesight.

Lastly, too much use of social media and on the go availability may harm your personal life.

Cheating in exams using Google Glass! Concept by Ujjwal Banthia

Only time will tell how Google Glass will stand out from the tech-crowd. As previously mentioned, the possibilities are endless given the increasing number of third party developers working on Google Glass SDK, to make it a lot more than what it seems to be. Let's keep our fingers crossed and just wait and see what marvels Google Glass holds for the future of education.

And, install the missing package(s).

Now install Ruby 1.8.3

We dont want documentation so do and install the required fedena gems.

echo "gem: --no-ri --no-rdoc" >> ~/.gemrc gem uninstall -i /home/deployer/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.8.7-p371@global bundler gem install bundler gem install rails -v 2.3.5 gem install i18n -v 0.4.2 gem install declarative_authorization -v 0.5.1 gem install mysql -v 2.8.1 gem install rake -v 0.8.7 gem install rush -v 0.6.8 gem install passenger

Downgrade the rubygem

gem update --system 1.4.2

Make the production environmenet

echo 'export RAILS_ENV=production' >> ~/.bashrc source ~/.bashrc

Remove the latest rake which is been installed . first check rake version by

gem list rake -d

Now, remove the latest rake verion . In my case it is rake 10.1.1

Now check the rake version by doing rake -v. If it only contains 0.8.7 than move to next step.

Install the fedena and move to the directory

wget http://www.projectfedena.org/download/fedena-github -O fedena.zip sudo apt-get -y install unzip unzip fedena.zip && mv projectfedena-fedena* fedena/ && cd fedena

I wrote one script which will update the fedena database file to your root password.please replace mypassword with your password. so, do

wget https://raw.github.com/passion8/fedena-install/master/ymlwriter.rb ruby ymlwriter.rb mypassword rm ymlwriter.rb

Now , we will run fedena rails command . First create the database.

rake db:create

if it is saying that they were not able to make the database because of server incorrect credentials , then you go to 16 step and start again .

Now its time to install plugins and its associated tables.

rake fedena:plugins:install_all

Make the script executable and then run passenger command .

chmod +x script/* passenger-install-apache2-module

Follow instruction . Usually, we have to edit /etc/apache2/httpd.conf file for popping passenger configuration.

That's all . if you have any problem , do comment . Thanks :)

Foradian to Sponsor Startup Festival with Conquest 2013

Foradian is gearing up to trigger the passion of startup festival in Conquest 2013, an initiative by BITS Pilani. With an aim to give a boost to the drive of entrepreneurship in the country and to produce effective entrepreneurial ventures that are born in the dreamy eyes of college students. Conquest 2013, is one such International Startup Competition that is looking for ideas that are still in the incubation period, to help them become big names in future.

Conquest: the right platform for upcoming entrepreneurs

  Conquest 2013 is an ambitious extension of Conquest that was started in the year 2004 as a Business Plan Competition. It was in 2006 and 2007, it became an international event to help entrepreneurs share helpful insights with others. The main motive of Conquest till the year 2007, was to help startup ideas and to motivate them to extent that will help them do big. But it was the lack of efforts by business ideas to come out of papers and be something in real that forced them to change the format. Soon, after seven successful years, Conquest came up with a newly formed setup in 2011 that is still being followed.

Conquest 2013 is ready to search for new and innovative business ideas and has an excellent resource back-up with an incubation offer of INR 1 crore and an equity-less seed money of INR 3 lakh. Moreover, good amount of resource backup has also been received from sponsor companies like Foradian.  

Interested business startups can register online, after which there will be a mentoring sessions at various parts of the country. Top finalists will be competing in the Grand Finale before the winner will be declared.

A great idea like this deserves plenty of support and Foradian is one such catalyst that supports BITS Pilani in their effort “to bring about a startup revolution in India” for they also “strongly believe in the power of youth”.
