*What*: Capstone Presentations
*When:* Tuesday, June 3rd at 12pm
*Where:* The Allen Center, CSE 403 (NOT CSE 203)
This week at Change four groups from the undergrad capstone class on
designing technology for resource-constrained environments will be
presenting their group projects. The capstone is a two quarter class
with the first quarter focused on design and the second focused on
implementation.
The four group projects are listed below and each will present for 10 min.
**DashTricks:* Tablet for District Manager - Tanzania*
/Hadiza Ismaila, Michael Kutz, Bryan Martin, Jian Zhao /
DashTricks is an Android tablet application that provides district
immunization managers in Tanzania with a dashboard for monitoring the
performance of key immunization indicators in health facilities in their
districts. Our project aims to give district managers a sense of
ownership over their data to help them realize problems and make better
vaccine management decisions intuitively and correctly.
*IcePAK: Tablet for National Manager - Pakistan*
/Jennifer Apacible, Brian Donohue, Austin Hedeen, Daniel Luna, Dov
Shlachter/
Here is a brief description of our project:
IcePAK is a mobile application focussed on vaccine cold chain
management in Pakistan. It's goal is to integrate large amounts of
data into easily consumable forms, enabling decision makers and
managers to allocate resources effectively. High visibility of problem
areas, and automated allocation recommendations, allows these at risk
locations to recognised early and dealt with efficiently.
*Training App for Laos*
/Sam Brender, Tore Hanssen, James Lee, Sang-Wha Sien /
We are developing a tablet-based training application that will be used
to train health workers in Laos. The initial purpose of the application
is to train workers on how to use an SMS-based vaccine stock reporting
system, but it will be used for other training in the future. Some of
the challenges this group has faced: designing for potentially
non-technical users, creating an extensible application for future
training needs, and simplifying the application update and
synchronization process.
*SMS Immunization Manager*
/Jennifer Kang, Isaac Reynolds, Jackson Roberts, Nicholas Shahan /
The SMS Immunization Manager (SIM) is an easy-to-install and
easy-to-customize system that allows community health workers to report
information about the vaccine cold chain (such as fridge temperature and
condition) by SMS rather than paper forms. SIM's main features include
robust SMS-based operations that correctly handle even poorly-formatted
messages and a moderation web application for administrators to review
the system's operation. The system will be deployed in Laos in the
coming months and possibly to other countries after.
