Doing the hokey cokey: The story of app development at the University of Glasgow
Sara Somerville and Julie Arbuthnott, University of Glasgow
How do you ensure user engagement after your app is downloaded from the app store? How do you mitigate against 50 year olds designing services for students? What an earth has this to do with the hokey cokey?!
This session with the UofG app team will discuss the different approaches they have taken to ensure that their UofG Life app continues to add value to the student experience beyond the initial few weeks; their iterative approach to development and how they have established the key partnerships required to deliver those ‘killer features’.
