When students at Seton Hall University return to school this Fall, they'll have a new way to keep track of class announcements, assignments, schedule changes, campus events, and other school information. During the summer, the university installed deltaTXT, the mobile communication system built by clearTXT Inc., that delivers class and school information directly to the mobile phones and email addresses of students, instructors, and staff. "We will use the technology to promote university events and to quickly communicate with our community if there is an emergency," explained Paul Fisher, Director of the Teaching and Learning Technology Center at Seton Hall University. "Plus, because deltaTXT integrates with our Blackboard e-learning software, students stay connected with their instructors and student organizations using the technology their most comfortable with - the mobile phone." According to Mr. Fisher, Seton Hall's long-term plan is to provide "clear, constant, and personal communication to the community. clearTXT is the first component needed to achieve this goal. We looked at other offerings, but clearTXT provides what the university needs in the least complicated and most cost effective manner." "We're thrilled Seton Hall selected us to help them achieve their communication goals and connect with their students via mobile phones," said Doug Kaufman, CEO of clearTXT. "Today, students are so mobile and connected that email is considered too slow and inconvenient. This creates serious communication problems for universities. By extending the university to the mobile phone, deltaTXT solves the problems and enables students to receive the information they need, anytime, anywhere." deltaTXT is integrated into thousands of courses, delivering messages to students 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and is being evaluated by numerous universities in the US, Canada, and UK.
