[Technical] Equipment and Room booking system

[James Poulos]

Thanks for the great responses. I am trialling the meeting room booking
system at the moment and it seems like a good product at an even better
price (open source) :-)

Thanks,
James

Hi all,

ABIManagement has an excellent room booking system that is so simple to
use. We have it at Simonds Catholic College and the teachers love it.
Teachers log on and are presented with a list of their classes. They
simply click onto the day and period they wish to book in what room and
press save. No one can overwrite bookings except the administrator and
it keeps a count of how many bookings are made in each class. It can be
viewed at :

  http://star.abimanagement.com/star-booking/

 If you want to test it, email info at abimanagement.com or me and you will
be given a user name and password.

There is also an online report writing system (STAR) that is superior to
other systems - search the sofweb knowledge bank for the article,
"Reporting to Parents using a web based program- a whole school
approach" and you can see what Gladstone Park says about it :-

(http://knowledge.education.vic.gov.au/sites/knowledgebank/Promising%20P
ractices/Student%20Learning/Reporting%20to%20Parents%20using%20a%20web%2
0based%20program-%20a%20whole%20school%20approach.doc).

 Again email if you are considering replacing your report writing system
with one that is user friendly, very powerful and has lots of added
extras such as homeroom teachers can view the results posted by other
teachers as they write their homeroom reports, view last semester's
comments, see a photo of the student as you write their report. Address
is http://abimanagement.com/.

thanks,

Philip Woodward
