  • Industry White Paper for Construction
    Industry White Paper for Construction Anyone in the construction industry can appreciate how instant communication keeps projects on time and on budget. It’s why the construction industry was one of the earliest adopters of push-to-talk (PTT) technologies on mobile phones. However, as mobile technology has moved forward, PTT has been stuck in the past. That is, until now. Voxer brings push-to-talk into the modern age, is available for most smartphones, and gives more capability and flexibility than any other instant communication solution on the market. How can Voxer help construction crews? ‣ Turn your smartphone into a walkie-talkie - stream audio from your phone even when you’re out of the app ‣ Eliminate range problems - get broader coverage with voice communication that works on any 2G, 3G, 4G or WiFi network ‣ Broadcast information quickly - create team contacts for one-touch communication to large groups of workers ‣ Never miss a message - live and recorded audio coupled with loud, repetitive alerts ensures that nothing is lost ‣ Keep in touch from your desktop - use a web browser to listen and respond to multiple conversations at a time 1 Problems with Traditional Push-to-Talk The core functionality of PTT is incredibly useful, however its live-only state ofers limited capability. When communication is “live-only” (e.g. two-way radios, cell phone PTT, phone calls) everyone is continuously interrupted, and if an employee is unavailable, important information can be lost and huge delays are possible. Traditional push-to-talk also requires expensive hardware that’s often outdated. Radios can cost hundreds or thousands of dollars a piece and have extended costs associated with maintenance.

  • The Impact of Mobile Technology on Teaching and Learning in the Undergraduate Population Patrick Davis
    The Impact of Mobile Technology on Teaching and Learning in the Undergraduate Population Patrick Davis 2014 Maxine Smith Fellowship Introduction: On‐Demand Learning Increasing access, limiting cost, and sustaining quality standards delineate an intolerable wish list, given the level of inconsistency among these drivers. The solution in many cases has been introducing exclusivity to post-secondary education through narrowing paths for learners. The marketplace for mobile devices (tablets, smartphones, e-Readers, etc.) is varying and developing precipitously, conveying with it new devices, new standards and new opportunities around mobile capabilities. For higher education institutions that want to facilitate learning on mobile devices, these changes will continue to have a substantial influence on these efforts. This paper highlights mobile strategic planning, partnering with vendors, the results of a mobilization survey given to the Maxine Smith Fellow 2014 class, and recommendation for uses of mobile technology. Overview of TBR Strategic Plan for Mobilization The use of mobile technologies has grown to such an extent over recent years that they now overtake the proliferation of personal computers in modern professional and social contexts (Attewell, 2005). The ready availability and uptake of devices such as mobile phones, personal digital assistants and mobile music players, have permeated the manner and means of human communication, socializing and entertainment to such an extent that is it rare to find a person in western society who does not own at least one such device. And yet, the pedagogical use of these powerful devices is not widespread in higher education. Notwithstanding the reality of the ‘digital divide’, the declining cost and mounting social currency associated with mobile devices, means that many students own one or more such devices.
