Go-Lab Deliverable D5.6 Releases of the Go-Lab Portal and the App Composer -final

This deliverable presents the final releases of the Go-Lab Portal and the App Composer following the specifications presented in D5.2 and the initial releases presented in D5.4. In this deliverable we elaborate on the features that were added or modified since the releases of D5.4.Since the initial releases were launched at the end of M24, many online labs, apps, and ILS have been added into the Portal. The Go-Lab Portal consisting of the Go-Lab Repository and the Go-Lab ILS Platform has been extended to support user communities and to integrate user generated content. The App Composer provides mechanisms to translate apps and include external applications in the ecosystem. All the three platforms are better connected and serve the Go-Lab user community together in a seamless way.More important, the Go-Lab Portal and the App Composer are not just the final releases of a technical implementation, but a rich platform which orchestrates the work conducted by other Go-Lab clusters and their work packages. The final releases demonstrate the project-wide achievements of Go-Lab by M36. Especially, the labs and big ideas come from collaboration with WP2. The pedagogical suggestions of WP1 and community support requests of WP6 have been taken into consideration and implemented. The additions and improvements described in this D5.6 deliverable compare to the features and services offered by the platforms at the end of the second year (D5.4) result from participatory design and evaluation activities done in the Pilot B phase by WP3 and WP8, respectively, as well as from the feedback of the reviewers. The outcome of participatory design is fully detailed in D3.3 (M36).This deliverable is tightly associated to the previous work delivered in WP5. The requirements were initially specified in D5.2 and implemented in the initial releases as described in D5.4. The structure of this deliverable is in line with the one of D5.4. This deliverable corresponds to software releases. So, the actual outputs delivered are the final releases of the three following platforms: http://www.golabz.eu/, http://graasp.eu, and http://composer.golabz.eu/. Basic features can be tested without an account. For more advanced testing, an account should be created on http://graasp.eu to get then an access to all platforms. This document is just an accompanying summary explaining the new released features and services, as well as their elicitation process
