Hot on the heels of recent reports predicting a huge surge in the popularity of online learning at higher education level, Full Suite Websites has announced the launch of its first ever content management system designed specifically for the education industry. Paris Mansion is built with Mansion OS technology and optimised for distance learning.

Commenting at the launch, Full Suite Websites’ CWK Kithima (Senior Digital Media Consultant) said, “Our Paris Mansion CMS system is easy to use, quick to configure and supplied with settings for parents, students, teachers, and managers. This means schools opting to use Paris Mansion can do so immediately, meaning the system begins working for each organisation from the moment it is purchased.”

Distance learning is becoming increasingly popular as traditional university fee rises come into play and students opt to work and study at the same time. In a marked departure from traditional degree-level learning, some courses such as Bournemouth University's newly launched BA (Hons) in media practice are designed specifically for distance learners, meaning there is an increased demand for bespoke intellectual property management platforms. Taking this need and creating an ideal platform for effective distance learning, Paris Mansion combines all of the functionality of popular sites like Amazon, Facebook and Google Calendar, with intuitive website content management tools and a functional, adaptable intranet system for student teacher communication.

A unique Interactive Articles feature means the syllabus, course materials, lecture notes, handouts and reading lists can be created as a fully interactive website page featuring audio, video, images, assessments and comment functionality, other aspects of the CMS facilitate speedy communication. The software allows all members of the education community to connect using popular social networking plug ins, while over 30 high impact interactive apps allow users to build vibrant educational communities.

Built on the Mansion OS platform, Paris Mansion is one of six advanced website infrastructures available from Full Suite Websites. It is purchased as Open Source software, allowing license holders to make any necessary changes to the code for complete personalisation and adaptability.
