EDUmind MiClase, an open-source teacher’s notebook, keeps data on the device and syncs without its own server
Its author explained in the group how it syncs two devices and which features he says he has added to assess under the LOMLOE.
EDUmind MiClase is an open-source teacher’s notebook, created by Luis Vilela Acuña, with assessment by criterion and instrument under the LOMLOE. Its repository states that students’ data never leaves the teacher’s device and that it works offline. It is licensed under AGPL-3.0 or EUPL-1.2. EDUmind is the same initiative behind the Galician and Spanish dictation tools that the paper reported on 30 October.
Faced with a question about how to sync with Firebase, its author explained another route: a direct link between devices on the same wifi network, with no servers or external services. The repository confirms that syncing can be done over WebRTC, with no intermediate server, or through encrypted envelopes that the server cannot open. The author adds that the password is compared before anything is sent, that newer data is not overwritten by older, and that photo and video evidence is requested separately so as not to exhaust memory; these details come from his message.
According to the author, he has also added assessment of curricular adaptations and support measures, analysis of key competences and operational descriptors, and local analysis of Galician teaching plans in PDF; the repository does not detail this and it has not been checked. For those who code their own apps, it is an example of how to reduce data-protection risks.
