Full Sail Online is one of the most abbitious development efforts I have been involved in. There are many Learning Management Systems (LMS) out there but Full Sail decided to build their own… from scratch. It took the colaborated efforts of designers, curriculum developers, beta testers, and web developers to make this product what it is today.

Full Sail online is composed mainly of two sites: the student site and the course director’s site. They are both pretty self explanatory. Course directors create and manage content, quizes, tests, assignments (etc.) for the students to access and complete on their site.

This site was primarily developed in ColdFusion. We have used other technologies, like Ajax, to enhance user experience. It should be noted that most of it’s users are Mac users. This is why we have not neglected validation for browsers on those systems as well.

The developers that have worked alongside me on this effort have all been amazing. The quality of the product and the flexibility of it’s Object Oriented (OO) design are a true testament to our commitment.

Some of the projects I’ve worked on have been on a temporary basis. Sometimes there are simple enhancements to be done and sometimes they are temporary projects. In either case, they are sites that I have worked on as some point in recent history but they may not necesarily contain any of my content.

“Why do you include them on this blog?” you might ask yourself. Well, mostly it’s because they are big companies. I am happy that I have worked in one way or another on these sites even if some have gone through some heavy changes since I last touched them.
