My Teacher Assistant
The product was developed for Sunburst and represents a "light" version of QuickMind combined with several administrative applications for educational purposes. The applications include: calendar, calculator, classes and groups management system, report generation tool.
My Teacher Assistant has started a new generation of educational portals with a unique combination of content delivery via Web and functions of administrative control over the educational process. Implemented in this product were new methodical findings for lesson building.
Within the system framework, the main stress was laid on communication among school teachers, exchange of lesson plans, tasks, students' personal data. A part of the information was available to parents. System resources can be shared for users from other schools who employ the same system. Teachers and students can share their lesson plans, tasks, problem solutions, research papers, compositions, and other resources.

Portal for Saudi Arabia Ministry of Education
In 2005, the Ministry of Education for Saudi Arabia entrusted DigitalXpert with working out consultations and requirements on an educational portal creation.
In shortest timeframes, the following steps were performed: project requirements have been collected and specified; schools' needs and technical abilities analyzed; a corresponding job description (FRP) written. DigitalXpert's team has worked out a technical specification for creating an educational portal taking into account the following factors: task interpretation by the customer; different language and mentality of suggested end users; unknown distribution process for the product.
The customer has fully accepted the results, realized the scope and essence of the project, and suggested further collaboration in the form of consultations during the process of project realization, which was commissioned to a developer company in Saudi Arabia.
