Company's brief descriptionOnline-First Business English School

• Client
  Dord
• Main goal
  Deploy a Moodle Server and maintain it with zero cost as long as possible.
• Details and responsibilities
  I was responsible for deploying the Moodle server and maintaining it while keeping in mind the School had $0 to invest in server maintenance when it was founded. I chose to use Google Cloud Platform because it had free credit for 12 months, which was enough time for the school to have funds to keep the server running. I chose a low code approach because maintaining the server was a secondary assignment that I did for free. I taught myself how to use GCP, Compute Engine and Data Buckets to backup the servers. I also implemented Google’s OAuth2 login system to make the login process easier for students and teachers.
• Outcomes
  The Moodle server which was used to apply tests to grade students.
• Technologies
  Google Cloud Platform, PHP

• Client
  Dord
• Main goal
  Train staff to effectively use the Moodle server while keeping good practices in inserting and keeping data.
• Details and responsibilities
  I taught the teachers at Dord how to create questions for the question bank and to use a tag system that I created, which was human-readable. The tagging system was created as a foundation to implement AI-driven granular grading and studying suggestions as a long-term goal. I crafted video lessons and a manual for future reference. I also taught them how to navigate the system, create cohorts, tests, and everything they needed to keep their classes running properly.
• Outcomes
  A tagging system and a training course for the teachers.
• Technologies
  Adobe Premiere, Microsoft Office, Moodle
