About Project

Mobile School Information System (MSIS)

Background

Number of students of HKIVE(TY) is continuously increasing in the recent years, causing problems of lack of free computer facilities for students.

The wireless network of HKIVE(TY) has been well-developed but the using rate is low because only notebooks can access to it.

Student Portal Service (SWS) currently serves for full-time students only,  part-time students reflected difficulties on accessing data like personal profile and timetables as a full-time student.

Why MSIS?

Shares the workload of computer facilities as well as improves the using rate of the well-developed wireless network by providing SWS-like services to both full-time and part-time students.

Helps teachers to manage classes and communicate with students by providing services such as news publication, timetable searching, and so on.  

Caters to the wide-use of wireless devices.

Objectives
