Mapping Technology to Geography Dylan J. Sather Grinnell College
So please, be critical! I'm new to this...
Grinnell College • ~1600 students • Middle of Iowa • Liberal Arts school • 70-100 student staff at any given time • ~25 student Helpdesk staff • Around 18 public labs, 20 public printers
How can it help you? • Toner/OO e-mails • Fewer calls, happier users • Statistics galore • Rates of toner usage, printer uptime (, lab usage) • Free, open... • MIT License, runs on free OS + software
How can it help users? • New to campus? • Help Freshmen find labs and printers • Up at odd hours? • Perhaps you don't know when Lab X is open • Printing somewhere? • Make sure your printer is ready to rock • Much more...
What would you need to change? • Picture, locations, names • Toner scripts • Grinnell-specific stuff • And of course, anything else you see fit!
What does the future hold? • Toner Prediction • Lab Search • Scripts in Perl/Python • Modularize Grinnell-specific features • “Installation” scripts • Much, much more...
Any more questions? Thanks for coming! http://www.resnetsymposium.org/rspm/evaluation/ dylan.sather@gmail.com
