Going Mobile an Opportunity and Challenge for Higher EducationLori Nidoh
Faced with the exponential growth of traffic from mobile browsers to the University’s website, the increasing market dominance of smart phones and the growing percent of high school and college students that access the internet via mobile devices, The University undertook dual projects of developing a mobile app and a mobile website in late 2010. We will walk through the analysis of vendors, platforms, content, etc we went through in the planning stage as well as the implementation, launch and early results. We will share lessons we learned as well as offer some suggestions for schools considering mobile development at their institution.
1. The majority of students, especially teenagers, now own cell phones and use them regularly for social networking and accessing information online. However, many schools still ban cell phone use.
2. While there are valid concerns about cell phone distraction and misuse, banning them means missing an opportunity to teach students how to utilize their powerful educational tools productively.
3. Adapting school cell phone policies to allow educational uses could benefit all students, even those without phones, by engaging digital native learners with a tool they are highly familiar with.
Designed for the Worst Case - Zurich's water supplyMemi Beltrame
Zurich has two separate water supply systems - one for households and one for emergency use. The emergency system includes decorative fountains throughout the city that can be opened to access hydrants and distribute water in case the household system becomes polluted. Though the fountains appear impractical for fetching water, they are designed to reveal hydrants that can connect to hoses and pipes for water distribution in disaster situations. The document emphasizes designing for failures and worst case scenarios.

Going mobile - Highed Web Presentation - 2011Nathan Gerber
Nathan Gerber is the Director of Web Development Services at Utah Valley University. He gave a presentation on mobile web strategies for higher education institutions. Some key points from his presentation include:
- Mobile internet usage is growing rapidly and will impact how institutions provide online content and services.
- When developing a mobile strategy, institutions should focus on key information and services for current students, start small, and be willing to iterate based on what works.
- Content management systems need to support multi-format publishing and content reuse across desktop and mobile. Mobile-specific templates and tagging can also help.
- QR codes, browser sniffing, analytics, and testing on emulators can help institutions test and improve their mobile offerings.
The document discusses opportunities for incorporating mobile technologies into services at academic libraries. It finds that a large percentage of undergraduate students now own smartphones and tablets, and use them frequently to check news, email, social media, maps and more. Many libraries have started offering mobile-friendly websites and catalogs to provide standard services via these popular mobile devices. However, fully developing mobile apps and customizing interfaces for different platforms remains a challenge for most academic libraries.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

25. Responsive Design to the Rescue
I think of responsive
design as an alternative to
mobile sites.
Ethan Marcotte
29. The Responsive Design Process at UVM
A minimal incremental redesign
A “mobile first” approach
Integrating HTML 5 elements
Homepage and “top tier” first strategy
Responsive templates for departments to be made
available immediately after responsive launch
A standalone responsive template for “hosted” sites
31. The “Mobile First” Approach @ UVM
“Author a lightweight semantic core foundation first
then progressively enhance the experience from
there.” – Brad Frost
Wireframes and mockups should begin with the
smallest screen size (320 px)
Content should follow a logical and relevant order
when displayed linearly
Optimize controls for touch screen devices
Adopt a progressive enhancement approach to
design and development
33. Content Considerations
Revisit content on all pages focusing on ordering of
content
Consider carefully which (if any) content to place
under buttons or in sliders based on screen size
Reduce or limiting redundant or “filler”
content, especially on landing pages
Streamline and condense navigation whenever
possible
34. Designing for Touch Devices
Touch size
Additional spacing in menus and lists of links
Button sizes (46 pixel minimum width)
A to Z
Control placement
Considering how people hold their devices
Well… we’re not there yet
36. Typography in RWD
Relative font sizes (ems and rems)
target / context = result (12px/16px = .75em)
Compromised on a larger font size than expected
Readability and line lengths (50 to 75 characters per
line)
Utilizing Adobe TypeKit for custom fonts
38. Cross Browser Compatibility
Design for Internet Explorer v. 7 and above
Conditional stylesheets for IE
IE media queries support (css3-mediaqueries.js by
Wouter van der Graaf)
Internet Explorer 9 and below only loads the first 31
stylesheets per page
Modernizr for HTML 5 support on older browsers
41. Early Performance Results
-42% page size when viewed on an
iPhone
+24% visits [+4% non-mobile]
+26% unique visitors [+8% non-mobile]
+27% pageviews [+9% non-mobile]
+13% avg. visit duration [+1% non-mobile]
42. Ongoing Challenges
Too much redundant, outdated, irrelevant, and
extraneous content
Campus responsive adoption rates remain low
Educating web developers on publishing responsive-
and mobile-friendly content
Replacing Flash-based content with equivalent
HTML 5 (including fallbacks)
Achieving optimal performance and minimal data
download requirements across all devices
43. Next Steps
Converting microsites
Performance improvement and enhancements
Working with departments and vendors to deploy
responsive or mobile-friendly options on “hosted”
web applications
Developing an adaptive image strategy
Evaluate the future of UVM Mobile and the iUVM
application
44. Takeaways
A fast-paced and agile approach is required to stay
on top of mobile web development
RWD can be a good approach when mobile web
development resources are limited
A mobile first approach can offer
content, design, and performance advantages
Use metrics to constantly evaluate and adjust your
mobile web efforts
