About eFlyer

In April of 2006 the five seniors and one junior from the 2006 ISIS 200 Research Capstone course unveiled their new Duke eFlyer project–a centralized system for organizing and posting electronic flyers for Duke student events. The ISIS 200 students worked closely with representatives from Student Affairs, the Office of Student Activities and Facilities, OIT, the Office of News and Communications, Arts and Sciences Computing, and the John Hope Franklin Center for Interdisciplinary and International Programs to create the best possible solution for the Duke community.

The ISIS 200 Research Capstone is a unique opportunity for ISIS certificate students to participate in a simulated technology startup company. ISIS 200 is an entirely student-driven, group project course in which an interdisciplinary team of students propose, design, and build a new technology prototype intended to enhance interdisciplinary collaboration and community interaction at Duke. Last year’s ISIS 200 students designed a new online campus map, which was eventually adopted as the official online campus map at http://map.duke.edu.

Taught by the ISIS Program Director and an OIT Project Manager, ISIS 200 builds upon the previous skills developed in the ISIS undergraduate certificate by providing a framework in which students must leverage their individual ISIS-related skills and experiences to successfully complete a socially and technologically challenging information design task.

Based on their successful project demonstration, the Division of Student Affairs first deployed this site in 2006. It was redesigned in 2008.
