EuroClio is looking for front-end-developers to contribute to the development of Historiana, a progressive web application designed to inspire and support history educators to teach history in an innovative way, as part of an open source project. The main task is to develop the user experience of a new block in an existing interface  that can be used in the eActivity Builder. The block is designed to help users analyse texts. The eActivity Builder makes it possible for users to create their own eLearning Activities in any language. The Building blocks can be used to create eLearning Activities. Each building block has its own functionality, and the different building blocks can be put in any order.

The development process, starting from a sketched design, includes:

  • The development of a prototype;
  • Processing feedback from partners and users at several occasions;
  • Delivery of a copy of Historiana with a new functional building block; and
  • Integration of the code in the main Historiana website.

The last step of the development process needs to be done in cooperation with Webtic, that has developed Historiana up to now.
