UNEC introduces a Mobile- application Program
The application of a mobile program of unec.edu.az webpage has been launched at Azerbaijan State University of Economics (UNEC). The mobile- application program implemented for the first time among the higher education institutions of the country will be available in three languages- Azerbaijani, Russian and English.
UNEC’s alumni, the Technical Director of the company Safaroff Zulfugar Ismayilzade informed about the importance and usage rules of mobile application. He said because of its compact and simplified format the mobile- application’s usage created on the basis of the university’s official site is very easy. Moreover, for its speedy work, little- used traffic and time savings it has better opportunities than the official site. The mobile- application is developed in the special telephone format. While examining the data, using the scale there is no need for scrollbar for different directions.
Within the presentation it was noted that another advantage of the program is sending “Push Notification” to users. The innovation provides the opportunity of keeping the users in touch. Users are sent “notification”, “notice” about the newly added data and the “reminder” for the long term.
It was also informed that as the main operative part of the site is “News-Ads”, the section “News-and Announcements” is placed as the first page. The users is informed about the new event or ad by the reflection of “>n” (n- is the number of unread news or announcements). Here, as in the site- news are introduced with photos, but the announcements without the photos, distinctly depicted. The users are regularly sent “push- notification” about the information placed, even if they do not enter the mobile- application, which keeps them informed.
In addition, they will be able to share the read information immediately on the facebook, twitter and whatsapp or send it to other user.
The information about the mobile- application’s sections was delivered within the event. It was said that in the section University consisting of 3 parts the information about UNEC (history, achievements and so on) is placed.
It is also possible to enter the most used by the teaching and student staffs EDUMAN system where the Student’s Cabinet and Teacher’s Cabinet are situated. This way the availability of EDUMAN system by users is ensured.
