Erlend Thune

This is my profile page for the work I do for the Norwegian directorate for education and training.

I use another profile for my private projects.

Below is a description of some of the projects I work on.

Canvas LMS custom frontend

I maintain the GUI for Norways largest e-learning portal in this repository.

LTI

To expand the functionality of the GUI above, I first made some initial prototypes of an LTI module through these projects:

These were later developed further into kpas-api by external developers, and is now maintained by me.

Interactive video transcripts

Inspired by the interactive video transcripts used in the Coursera platform, I made javascript code to do the same for YouTube videos. I first mentioned the project in the Canvas community encouraging people to improve it. The code was later made as a separate module by DMR-coding, and I am proud to be accredited for my work there.

I've later developed the same functionality for Vimeo. That solution requires both backend and frontend code, and currently the backend code is only available in the KPAS-API described above, not as an independent module. An example of how the interactive vimeo transcripts work can be seen here. Notice that you can click anywhere in the interactive transcript, to make the video start playing from the corresponding timestamp.

QTI converter

QTI is as standard for exchanging digital questions. I wrote a PHP script to convert questions from excel to QTI, which can be accessed here. I got a request from an employee of the Americana university in Paraguay to reuse the code, which I then provided here.
