interaction with participants in the Making Decisions adolescent program, the
intern will assist in developing technology integration and awareness
curriculum through activities like podcasting and on-line puzzles with the goal
of creating a Wikipedia style repository for education curriculum for Save the
Children's field offices and educators. Additionally, the intern will
participate in the development and training of in-depth entrepreneurial
curriculum for small enterprises in the technology sector.
2. What is the length of project: 2 months
3. Language skills required/desired: should be functional in the Spanish
language
4. Technical Skills required/desired: The position will involve a range of
skills, including the following: programming/application design in XML, CSS,
Ajax, and other web languages for the on-line content, skills and intuition for
business and entrepreneurship, and clear presentation of topics in Spanish.

ideally, remain for a time as a contact for supporting the continuing
development of the on-line content.

(How is this
project capacity-building?) The long term impact is creating education
materials
for/with technology in the burgeoning area of ICT in developing countries by
providing a foundation for growth.

ICT Coordinator
Making Decisions Program
Save the Children Bolivia

Help Argentina
1. Project description: Migrating the complete HelpArgentina Website to a
content management system.
2. Objectives:
a. Increased usability (for both visitors and staff), improved content
structure, cleaner design.
b. Coherent tools and user/permission based workflows for site operation,
maintenance, and extension. Users may be both Help staff and member
organization representatives (Extranet, distributes site content publishing).
c. Complete and dynamic multi-language capacity The intern would be
involved in
the requirement collection from the stakeholders (though much of that would
already be completed upon arrival to save time), help with the drawing up of
the functional requirement specification, evaluate the CMS options and write
the technical requirement document, implement the project (CMS setup, extension
coding as necessary, porting of existing php-based functional modules, content
migration, and ideally some graphic design of the CMS based new site, testing
and QA, and project documentation and preparation of staff training.)
3. Challenges:
a. Complexity: The site is complex, uses many administrator functions,
database
management, custom processes. It has grown from being a simple, design-focused
institutional website to a major, mission critical work tool, incorporating
many processes online. However, this expansion has come in fits and starts,
using various different volunteers with different levels of experience, many of
whom are not available anymore for additional work or even comments. Hence, the
site is hard to maintain, functionality is often not documented, original
modules have been modified without maintaining consistency in methodology and
design. There also is a lot data junk on the server that nobody knows whether
it is still needed.
b. Design and Usability: The original design was not meant for growth.
Because
the site navigation and content structure has not scaled, important info is not
easily found, is hidden in some link somewhere not necessaril intuitively
placed, the visitor gets lost on the site, etc. On the staff side, there are
various important tools that do not talk to each other, and incoherent in their
usage, etc. The existing site admin does not cover many of the relevant and
quickly changing site parts, e.g. the news section is manually updated using
Dreamweaver, etc
4. What is the length of the project? 2-3 months, full time
5. Language skills required/desired: / Idiomas requeridos/preferidos?
English,
Spanish basics would be helpful
6. Technical Skills required/desired:
a. Excellent skills in php, MySQL database, and advanced Website design
b. Experience in content management implementations, open source
systems like
Mambo CMS or Drupal preferred as there is no budget for commercial software
c. Graphic design experience would be helpful (for the new site's layout)
d. Well developed documentation skills
7. General Skills required/desired: Capacidades generales
requeridas/preferidas?
a. careful and methodical professional
b. works well in a multicultural team environment
c. sympathy and interest for the HelpArgentina mission and the social
sector in
Argentina
8. What responsibilities, if any, will the student have prior to and
after the
placement?
a. it would be helpful is the student could commit some time
evaluating the
website prior to starting the project, so as to jump-start everything
b. after the implementation, it would be helpful if the student was
available
for at least comments and assistance to other programmers and users, ideally he
would occasionally be available for some site tweaks or extensions
9. What will the long term impact of the student's contribution be?
(How is this
project capacity-building?): The new website will be a major factor in
facilitating HelpArgentina's institutional growth. It is a crucial tool for all
it's stakeholders, staff, member NGOs, donors etc
10. Who is the primary contact for the project? HelpArgentina CTO -
Ingo Boltz
11. Who will be supervising the students work? HelpArgentina CTO -
Ingo Boltz
12. What kind of accomodations are available to the student? (Does your
organization have the ability to arrange housing?) We can assist the student in
looking for affordable housing. We may be able to offer (but can not garauntee
at this time) free/low-cost housing, such as an extra room in a staff member's
house.
13. Can your organization provide any funding or other support for a
student?
Unfortunately, we can not provide financial support for the student.
