Software

Sync-O-Matic 3000. I developed a tool called Sync-O-Matic 3000 which automates the production of web-lectures using RealNetworks media and HTML. This product is in use at a number of sites around the world and is downloaded several times each week. The best example of its use is the CERN Web lecture repository. 

ClipBoard-2000. To address some of the usability problems in Sync-O-Matic, I developed a tool called ClipBoard-2000 which also produces web-based lectures using Quicktime. ClipBoard-2000 is very easy to use and it allows the instructor to annotate their slides with text and drawing. ClipBoard also allows the instructors to use a document camera to show objects in their lectures. ClipBoard is early in the development process but has generated significant interest from both commercial and educational institutions.

Sakai 1.x and 2.x products. Sakai is a free, community source, educational software platform designed to support teaching, research and collaboration. Sakai is in use at over 200 schools with well over a million users who use Sakai daily. I am one of the top contributors to Sakai over the past decade.

I have made small open source contributions to Moodle, Skulpt, and Class2Go.

Starting in late 2012, I developed a simple open source MOOC platform that I use to power Dr. Chuck Online. This project is now finished and future work has been moved to my Tsugi effort.

Tsugi (次). My most recent software project is to build a new Learning Management Operating System (LMOS) called Tsugi (次) to ease the effort needed to build distributed teaching and learning applications based on IMS standards and enable the creation of an educational application store.

Additional MOOCs

In order to better explore the potential of MOOCs, I built and deployed my own independent MOOC platforms and deployed several free courses on those platforms.

o My first MOOC platform was online.dr- - Over 8,000 students took Python on this platform between 2013 and 2016. It is now retired and forwards interested students to my other platforms as well as Coursera.

o To support the Python 3 version of my textbook I produced . You can sign up and take my course material for free. As of August 28, 2019 I have 46992 students taking the course from this web site.

o I support my on-campus courses and prepare for my upcoming MOOC Specialization titled, "Web Applications for Everybody", I have the entire course, supporting materials, and assignments up at .

o I am preparing for what iwil hopefully become my next Coursera specialization titled "Django for Everybody" at
