UTUTI is a proposed platform for a study-oriented social network designed specifically for the needs of academic communities. It aims to become a virtual campus that serves as a repository for all relevant information and a hub for communication between students and teachers. UTUTI brings the advantages of social networks like communication tools and groups but adapts them for academic uses and avoids distractions that could hinder effectiveness for education. It is proposed as a private network only accessible to members of a university and includes features for communication, sharing course materials, and collaborating.
