The Smart Campus leads other key smart learning solutions being highlighted during GITEX. Accessible via PC and mobile devices, the Smart Campus is a one-stop-shop for the needs of HBMSU learners and faculty. It works by seamlessly automating and integrating all relevant services, applications and subsystems – whether open source or commercial – to ensure a smooth, enjoyable and fruitful user experience. Chief of its features is a platform enabling social communication, collaboration, and learning among all members of the university community.

Dr. Mansoor Al Awar, HBMSU Chancellor, said: “Our Smart Campus and other smart learning solutions have significant implications for millions of learners in the Arab region and beyond. All of these solutions are learner-centered and involve active restructuring for genuine collaboration among learners and deep understanding of given learning materials.”

Other HBMSU’s smart learning solutions that are also on showcase include the e-learning course digitization, which converts conventional courses to smart learning materials accessible on any device; virtual classroom, an online classroom that allows learners to communicate with their fellow learners and instructors; and virtual lab, which enables learners to log on remotely from different physical locations to use a dedicated pool of computing resources for experimenting purposes.
