This paper demonstrates that building smart phoneapplications is not just limited to games, but also how students can use it to build applicationsthat inform and educate which can also expose students to even more topics which are nottraditionally covered by conventional software courses. This paper thereby serves as aninnovative way to expose technology students to this fascinating topic and give them a forum forcreative development which challenges them to enhance their skill-set through active learning.IntroductionHow we communicate usually determines the success with which our message is received orunderstood…or even accepted.
