agency to handle the creation work, and allows the creations to be viewed
immediately – OnTheSpot.
OnTheSpot creation is a new emergent need which has not been catered to
by any software/hardware in the world. Simultaneous collaborative creation of
a single large page has been missing in the software domain. The
popular/professional page makeup software such as MS-World, Power-point,
Corel-Draw, Facebook, Instagram etc. allow only one person to create at a
time – a big bottleneck for OnTheSpot events.
In fact, the Users can get a taste of OnTheSpot creation ability through the
internet HumServer itself. So on the HumServer cloud, many Users can
4. Enhancement of exhibits.
After a field trip in a botanical garden, the students can upload picture/videos of
the plants which fascinated them, as well as some top 5 points on what they
learnt. These can then be seen by the whole class and can become the basis for
a motivated discussion.
Senior students can be encouraged to make some fascinating videos of say their
visit to some industrial or tourist places, or even recording the growth of a sapling
in their home. They can then prepare a power-point presentation, and upload it to
the HumSafar. The teacher can then conduct a mini-seminar, by having each
student show on the projector their videos and the slides. Each one will be on the
toes, because a Poll will be conducted afterwards for ranking the presentations
on various aspects.
Students will love to add educational videos, downloaded from the net or made
themselves. They can value-add with captions and voice-overs. As many of the
YouTube videos keep getting removed, it would be wise to preserve the useful
videos, by downloading them once in the HumSafar.
Atleast one OTS (OnTheSpot) HumSafar can always be made available in the
library, for carrying to classes and conducting a special session with the rich
material inside it. This can be also taken for covering outside events, such as
sports meet, cultural functions etc.
HumSafar, can be initially used for the more "fun-oriented" activities - as best of
the things are always ingrained by the unconscious the fun-way. So this can be
used for trivia Quizzes on which prizes can be given. It can be used for having
people vote on who among the candidates should be chosen for various posts of
the student body. Ratings can be got for the various food-items in the canteen
and even who are the best teachers. Everyone will be on the toes.
HumSafar, with its ease of use, sharing and collaborative working - will become
the much needed platform for every school, where every important activity is
recorded OnTheSpot, so that it not only motivates the participating students, but
raises the bar for the subsequent ones. PCs have notoriously failed to fill this
vacuum, for this new OnTheSpot platform.
