Ex Libris®, a ProQuest company, has announced that New Zealand’s Toi Ohomai Institute of Technology has chosen the Ex Libris campusMTM cloud-based mobile platform to provide a mobile-accessible portal that will increase student engagement in campus life. The campusM platform will replace a home-grown solution.
The institute’s original mobile infrastructure—a browser-based page of links—lacked real-time information and data, creating a sub-optimal user experience, with students having to click several times to access the information that they need. In addition, the page could not deliver notifications and was not mobile responsive.
Toi Ohomai determined that a key IT strategic goal was to focus on developing the staff and student experience, which resulted in the establishment of a modern mobile infrastructure that would enable students to engage, collaborate, and receive updated information anywhere, at any time.
After evaluating their existing Toi Ohomai Hub platform, the team concluded that the campusM platform would assist the institution in supporting student life via both a native app and a web portal. The campusM platform is designed to provide information of many types, such as grades, computer availability, live bus schedules, cafeteria updates, and campus events. In addition, the institute can extend the campusM capabilities through an app extension kit (AEK). By providing such services, Toi Ohomai will enhance the student experience, gain crucial analytical insight into how students are accessing content, ensure that students receive the latest information, and, more importantly, identify which students might need learner support.
