This is a demonstration of how Ohio University developed a Web-based Tutor Assistance Referral System that matches students seeking tutoring in a specific subject with Student Tutors that have been qualified by the Academic Advancement Center. Students and Tutors are matched up according to Tutor Profile and availability. When a student requests help, a calendar of available times returns.
Students can then pick their desired time slots and a list of available tutors is returned.
Students, Tutors and the Academic Advancement Center are all notified via automatically generated emails, and info is stored in the Oracle database. The application was built start to finish in approximately 4 weeks with Cold Fusion and Oracle. David Hannum has been with Ohio University since March 1998 and has built several production applications in Cold Fusion for Ohio University. Leon has worked within the Computing and Information Systems department at East Carolina University since 1990. Prior to his present position of Web Developer, he provided hardware, software, and network support for the campus.
