Education

Providing a learning environment - academic and vocational

  • Supports the classroom environment
  • Students concentrate on creative principles without being distracted by programming issues
  • Teachers can focus students on design tasks

The neatComponents system inherently supports the classroom environment (both on-campus and distance-based). For example, where the tutor needs to provide defined tasks, they can be provided in the form of template sites, which the students then have to extend or complete. Access can be restricted by IP address (to the campus network) or require username and password authentication.

Supports a wide syllabus:

  • Fundamentals of website construction
  • Graphic design
  • Database design and implementation
  • Content management design
  • Audience and market segmentation
  • Usability testing
  • Agile development
  • Search engine optimization
  • Principles of security and user access
  • Issues of lifecycle and total cost of ownership
  • Server management and network topology

Long-term student support

The rate-limited Free license is designed to allow students to have their own license for free, and to be able to complete projects, both for their education, and as a foothold in the commercial world.

Students can export sites created in class on the school's server and install them on their own instance.

Low volume use is free. Only when usage gets above a threshold do students need to pay for their license.
