Project Pitches
Amen Ahmed:
Social networking has become a large part of our everyday lives. We use it to
communicate with friends and family in real time and share pictures, videos, and links that we
like. Why not exploit the benefits of social networking to improve our lives and grow in our
fields of study and expertise?
With the Major Network App, we can do just that. The primary function of this app is to
group together students with like majors and fields of study, and link them to employers and
experts in their industry. For students, it would grant them the benefit of meeting others who
can appreciate their field, to compare notes and to learn from one another, as well as to meet
potential employers and keep up to date with certifications and how the industry is growing
and changing. This app is aimed at expanding one’s knowledge in their field and giving them a
taste of what they can expect to be doing in the future. Major Network would give anyone the
opportunity to meet people who are already doing what they want to be doing in a few years.
Ali Burmester:
Group projects and events can take a lot of effort and time to coordinate. With
everyone balancing multiple projects for different classes or their part-time jobs, these projects
can sometimes cause extra stress. Not only do you have to worry about your responsibilities in
the group but you also have to worry about the other people working on the project with you-
have they completed their tasks? Who is going to submit the final draft? Has someone saved
the most updated presentation to bring to class?
There are plenty of to-do list types of apps available for smart phones and laptops but
what about an application that lets you create a to-do type of list for project management in a
group. It could allow you to add tasks to the list and assign a particular group member that task
or add it to the list for someone to check off after completing. This could allow you to see who
has finished what (and when) and who has taken responsibility for the tasks that had not been
assigned to a particular person. This could make communication in a group much more
effective and efficient.

Project Pitches
Nelson Jointer:
By junior year, it has become a known tradition of selling and buying books. At the
beginning of the semester, you always wonder if the book if really needed if though it is listed
as “required”. In most cases, you are required to buy the bundle that includes the software
needed and book. There are possibilities that can purchase the two separately, however. I can
say that majority of the students that purchase the bundle, opens the package and puts the
away until the end of the semester or uses it when needed.
Well, what if your professor calls you out to read an excerpt from the textbook or
summarize last night’s reading? That’s when the “Mobile-Text” app comes in. Nowadays most
students, own some sort of Smartphone with app capabilities. With the purchase of the bundle
or bought, an app could be added to replace the textbook for mobility. This helps students
without the totting of different textbooks to class and also allows the students to leave the
textbook at home for hardcopy and at home study.
Danielle Krumm: We have all been there before many times in our time at LSU. You are on your way to
class, knowing that you need to charge your laptop during class. Not knowing where the
outlets are, you walk all around the classroom trying to find an outlet, but you just can’t seem
to find one. Outlets are in the back of some classrooms, on the side walls in other classrooms,
they could really be anywhere. What if there was a way that you could know where every
outlet in your specific classroom is before you even step foot in the door.
My idea is a brand new iPhone app that allows you to do just that. This app would be
specific to different college campuses. This app would have all of the buildings on your campus
and tell you where all the outlets are in each classroom. For example, on LSU’s campus this app
would have the BEC building and tell you where all of the outlets are in every single classroom
in BEC are. I think this app would be extremely helpful for people who have multiple classes
and need to charge their laptops during class.

Project Pitches
Chance Wahl:
If you are building a new home, Dream Home is the app for you. Not only can you
upload and customize blueprints straight from your smartphone, but you can also share your
designs on the app with others who also have the app on their smartphones. This would make
the app an essential for all contractors, constructors and city planners alike. In addition to
being able to customize blueprints, a modeled home can also be viewed which will imitate
exactly your customized blueprints.
With the ability to be able to view a model home straight from your blueprints, builders
will be able to get a view of the finished product before they even lay down the first brick.
Users can then even customize which kind of floor, roof, paint and wallpaper they want in each
room so they can formulate an exact idea of what they would like the finalized project to look
like. Add furniture to the rooms for the final touch to see a model home that you’d be ready to
move in to tomorrow and this way you can even make sure each room fits the exact dimensions
that you envisioned prior to building.

Final Decision Group projects and events can take a lot of effort and time to coordinate. With
everyone balancing multiple projects for different classes or their part-time jobs, these
projects can sometimes cause extra stress. Not only do you have to worry about your
responsibilities in the group but you also have to worry about the other people working on
the project with you- have they completed their tasks? Who is responsible for which parts?
Who is going to submit the final draft?
There are plenty of to-do list types of applications available for smart phones, but what
about an application that lets you create a to-do type of list for project management in a
group. It could allow you to add tasks to the list and assign a particular group member to
that task. It could also have the option of adding a task to the list for someone to take
responsibility for and claim so that the rest of the group members could see that it was
covered and that person could check it off after completing.
With its simple design and ease of use, the app would allow you to see who has finished
what (and when) and who has taken responsibility for the tasks that had not been assigned
to a particular person. This could make communication and completion of a group project
much more effective and efficient.
