Howard University School of Business Concierge

This program will be a concierge / host for students entering the school of business, as replacement for a secretary

Comment

Inspiration We were inspired by the opportunity to use this new Amazon technology for Business Students to find information that they may not store on their phones or in their minds

What it does This allows students to ask questions and view relevant information about school events and Business News

How we built it Amazon helped us with the graphics, and we used HTML3D as a main component for the links to external web pages

Challenges we ran into We had technical difficulties with the coding languages, as our team is still learning them (business students and IT personnel), but we are looking to make necessary improvements even after the contest is done.

Accomplishments that we're proud of:

  1. Usable Wall Street Journal link for students to view information useful for job interviews, investing, and general world knowledge
  2. Use of Lex, to speak to the console and hear responses
  3. Option of linking a welcome video for the school of business
  4. Option of changing certain aspects of the program for new needs

What we learned We learned how to enter basic codes to make the project work

What's next for Howard University School of Business Concierge - Install it in the Marketing Department office and test it out for student use
