Interactive Learning Portal (Education Web App)

The Interactive Learning Portal simplifies the distribution of in-app content and enhances control over content access rights. This platform allows teachers to access teaching resources more efficiently, supporting Engage Lime's mission to provide valuable educational aids.

Engage Lime, a provider of educational resources for schools, sought to expand their mobile app offerings by developing a web app. The Interactive Learning Portal Scorchsoft built for them delivers rich, interactive e-learning courses to schools under a credit-based licensing model, with separate admin, teacher and student accounts, self-service signup by school email suffix, and packaged resources that can be assigned to a school for a set period.

Inside the Engage Lime learning portal

Licensing, user roles, content delivery, signup and resource packaging — the five parts of the portal we built.

Advanced Licensing Controls

We created the Engage Lime portal to deliver rich, interactive e-learning courses and establish a unique licensing model. This model allows the business to issue credits to schools, enabling them to provide on-demand e-learning within classrooms.

Licences can be issued and expire, featuring an automatic redemption process that integrates with the school's internal procedures for assigning pupils to classes.

Ability to Create Different User Types on the Back End

The portal allows easy login access from the back end and supports the creation of various user accounts, including admins, teachers and students. Each user type has distinct roles and permissions tailored to their needs. Admins can manage content and user accounts, teachers can access and distribute educational resources, and students can engage with the materials.

This flexibility lets the portal meet the diverse requirements of its users, contributing to its overall success and usability.

Ability to Upload and Deliver Rich Content

Engage Lime required a system to upload content to their licence platform to control access effectively. To make that possible, we built a framework compatible with Adobe Animate, Vimeo and HTML5. This allows their team to upload content directly, ensuring the platform remains consistent and integrates cleanly with the existing portal database structure.

Given the diverse technical abilities of school users, the sign-up process needed to be straightforward. A complex system would be impractical and time-consuming for educational purposes. The solution was to assign email suffixes to each school upon sign-up.

When new users sign up using the school's email suffix, they are automatically assigned to the correct school. This streamlined process ensures efficient onboarding, minimises administrative effort, and enhances the user experience.

Packaged Learning Resources

To enhance the platform's usability for both end-users and the Engage Lime team, we implemented the ability to create resource packages through the back end. These packages can be accessed via credits or subscriptions and assigned to specific schools with ease. Additionally, availability time frames can be attached to each package. This feature simplifies resource sharing, gives the Engage Lime team greater control over distribution, and improves overall service quality.

What Our Clients Say

Scorchsoft helped us take our idea for an app and make it a reality. Everything from the planning meeting to decide what we really needed to the project management and execution was great. It was delivered on time - early in fact - and on budget. Highly recommend.
Rebecca PalserDragonfly Intelligence
Scorchsoft is a brilliant company with fantastic knowledge of the mobile app industry. From the project management to the development team, they have been the perfect candidate for our project, and we can't thank them enough!

We're really pleased with the work Scorchsoft has done in developing our web portal! They have been accurate with timelines and budget, delivering a solid product that allows us to monitor and manage patients remotely while they use our novel medical device at-home. The "plan - design - build" approach has worked well and saved us time in the long-run by catching requirements and issues early.
Daniel GreenSensTrain
I'm really pleased with how my app came out, it was exactly what I was looking for. The team at Scorchsoft are great at what they do and made the whole process as simple and easy as possible. Being someone who is not very tech savvy the set up and back end operations were done in a great easy to use manner even for myself which makes using my app stress free. Thanks to all the team!
Ruben CarrollMosaic Masterpieces
The new Flourish Education website has already removed a lot of manual processes, freeing up both schools, candidates and internal employees time. We are delighted with the look and feel which is clean, professional and more engaging. We are also pleased with the decision to have an HD video background on the homepage, and building immediate trust with our clients by giving them a taste of what it looks like in the Flourish Education offices.
James HancocksMarketing Manager, Flourish Education
I can't believe how quickly we started to see results with this project. Scorchsoft provided us with graphic-designed mockups of how the app would look once built, and we were able to sell the product for use by our first customer before the product was finished. Since launching in March, we have secured a major television network as a client who now uses Image Approvals to manage the talent approval process for their productions.
