Touch-screen UI project to be previewed at BETT...

…as described on Merlin John Online:

“Capita trying to take a leaf out of Apple’s book:

SIMS’ ‘concept car’ for the future

It’s a whole new look for SIMS, a bold attempt to tackle the inherent problem of all sophisticated software, which is how to maintain a balance between deep and wide functionality on the one hand and ease of use by busy multi-tasking people on the other. The company has employed an interface designer for the task and the benchmark was ambitious - Apple applications.

Does it succeed? Teachers are the ones to answer that, so take a good searching look at it – think of the things you long to be able to do with your MIS and see if Discover helps you with them.

That’s the new model. The “concept car” is a leap forward, an attempt to explore and show what the MIS of the future might look like. At BETT it will show how touch-screen technology and exciting graphics will be able to present the teacher with a highly accessible and multi-functional “dashboard” for the day’s work. There’ll be student data, with realtime alerts, general announcements, quick links to lesson content – lots of information and support on a screen that’s kept uncluttered and attractive with the aid of an advanced graphical interface manipulated by touch and gesture.

It’s a truly interesting venture. In authentic concept-car style, it’s intended to raise questions rather then provide answers. Any production version (and I know nothing of any dates or firm plans) is going to benefit from feedback, criticism and discussion as well as from continuing technological and educational change.”

Against all good advice, Aston Martin appear intent on diluting and damaging their brand with the awfully rebadged Toyota IQ, I mean cygnet.
