Various Projects at Western Michigan University ATIS

Surplus Hardware Catalog

Built for Western Michigan University, this database-driven web application catalogued all of the surplus hardware and furniture held onto by academic departments. This allowed academic departments to browse listings in order to find and request hardware and furniture that was otherwise not being used but already owned by the university. An eBay-style transaction system was implemented in order to allow academic departments to request items, as well as specify quantities and delivery information. This system allowed the university to save money by letting academic departments trade assets. Due to restrictions with Western Michigan University is not available for public viewing.

This increased effective communication as well as boosted productivity, since all team members could easily be brought up-to-speed on changes needed on web applications.

URL: Unavailable for Public Viewing
Client: The Kalamazoo Center for Medical Studies, sponsored by a grant with the National Institutes of Health
Built with support from the National Institutes of Health, Michigan State University, and the Kalamazoo Center for Medical Studies, this evaluation tool tested students various times throughout a semester on their knowledge of Alzheimer’s Disease. The aim was to see whether teaching the history of Alzheimer’s Disease increased the retention of information for students by asking students the same questions at differing periods through the semester. Though this website is no longer available online, the highly-database-driven web application served at the basis for the evaluation of this research study.
