Abstract

Nowadays there are a vast number of devices and technologies available for the common citizen to improve their communication with others. This fosters the design and implementation of systems that explore the available features of these devices. This paper presents a system that allows to inform, on a personalized way, the actors of an education institution on a free way using popular communication standards. Features like the system's architecture, prototype and system's evaluation are explained in the paper. Results show that this system can be an important complement to other popular systems in education environments (e.g. e-mail, chats, Wikis, forums, e-learning platforms etc.).
