The Ministry of Education of a Gulf country sought to adapt and localize science and mathematics curricula for primary and secondary school students in grades 6–12. The project involved several interconnected tasks, including translation from English to Modern Standard Arabic (MSA), extracting text from the e-learning authoring tool (Author-IT), re-uploading the translated text, and providing student-friendly narrations.
The scope encompassed 1.5 million words and thousands of slides with dynamic text, animations, and Q&A that required formatting and engineering.
Challenge:
The project presented several challenges, starting with a tight budget Tunisia Phone Number Data imposed by the Ministry’s strong negotiating power. In addition, a strict 2-month deadline was set for the project to be completed. In addition, technical difficulties arose due to the Authoring Tool’s inability to support Arabic text without truncation.
Alternative?
To overcome these challenges, our team collaborated with Engineering to explore various methods and workarounds to extract text from the Authoring Tool and safely return it in the correct format and direction. We leveraged Transessor TMS to maximize cost savings by identifying repetitions and fuzzy matches.
By negotiating reduced rates with our talented team of translators, we successfully accommodated the client’s tight budget. Our project managers developed a comprehensive plan, prioritizing the translation of the narration portions to allow for simultaneous recording while the rest of the courses were translated and formatted.
Transessor TMS ensured translation consistency by using shared glossaries and term bases that were automatically updated in real time. Organizing files by subject and grade facilitated faster progress and smoother transitions between phases.
As a result, we exceeded expectations, delivering fully localized content to the client within the specified timeframe, without disrupting the school year. The project achieved a harmonious balance between quality, cost, and deadline objectives.
