Connect to Miami with new iPhone application designed by students
i just saw this about Miami's free app and have downloaded it right now. it looks like it will be especially good for students. There is a Miami athletics content to this app.
| Quote: | Features of Miami’s application include: dining hall menus; campus news and events; athletic updates; campus maps; and directories listing university faculty, staff and students.
“Miami’s app is directly accessing live data, and it’s specific to the university,” Jerry Gannod, associate professor of computer science and software engineering and director of Miami’s M-Learning Center, said. “The students’ input was instrumental in developing a program that works so well and is functional for anyone who is affiliated with Miami, regardless of where he or she is globally located...
The creators of Miami’s app are already working on additions to the product. In the coming months, they hope to add campus bus schedules, walking tours and a themed game...
The Miami University M-Learning Center, established in October, encourages educators, policy-makers and technologists around the country to use mobile technologies to give students resources for knowledge outside the classroom. College students, under the direction of faculty advisers, are also receiving hands-on experience by developing mobile solutions and applications for various clients. |

| For the first time in a long time....I have a sudden craving for Garlic Gusto fries ( food option circa 2002 ) thanks to the simple mention of dining hall menu's. |
