Description
HEC Montreal has launched a mobile version of its Sakai CLE Open Syllabus, a contrib tool that organizes all learning resources and activies. According to our students, information relative to courses is dispersed in separate information systems, a major inconvenience for them. Building on the semantic capabilities of Open Syllabus, the mobile version offers a unified gateway to all relevant course information (Sakai,People Soft, etc.). A welcome page lists all the lectures, assignments or exams that are relevant for the current week (with dates, time slots and room numbers). By clicking on a particular lecture, students can check the activities or resources to be done before, during or after class. Students can also look at announcements or browse other lectures of this course or any other one. This mobile version was developed using GWT mobile and Phone Gap and works for iPhone and Android systems. We will report on a pilot conducted. Future versions will integrate other services.
