Case Study: ISKME improves its OER portal with Six Feet Up

Iskme streamlines an OER portal for 10,000+ resources with Six Feet Up

The customer, Iskme, a nonprofit focused on knowledge management in education, needed to enhance the functionality of its Open Educational Resources (OER) portal. The vendor, Six Feet Up, was engaged to implement new features for the Plone-powered site to improve user experience and data management.

Six Feet Up developed a solution that allowed users to create personal folders for storing links and added community tools like tagging and rating. They implemented an advanced search to navigate over 10,000 items and ensured the site remained fast through caching. Additionally, Six Feet Up automated a data import process with validation to streamline publishing. This resulted in a more robust, user-friendly portal for managing educational resources.
