BBC Cbeebies Prototype
一家当地机构赢得了投标BBC一个大型项目的机会——为现有的chbeebies网站做特写. 这包括在索尔福德的BBC媒体中心现场工作两天，其他公司在这两天里发展自己的想法.
我所在的机构入围了最后三名，并被邀请将他们的想法(在那两天内开发出来的)变成一个完整的原型, which would take several months.
I wrote the entirety of this project's back-end in Symfony 2, 让孩子在iPad上看视频或玩游戏，而父母可以观察他们，并在iPad上“推送”新内容. 这意味着父母通过自己的设备间接地给孩子提供内容，而不会直接干扰孩子的体验.
