Abstract
A very common type of extracurricular activities in universities are seminars and workshops. These types of events are used by instructors to introduce advanced content of the subjects they teach, to carry out practical applications, to invite speakers or experts in the field who speak about leading research topics, etc. The development of these activities requires some tool that facilitates its organization and management. Thus, it is necessary to manage relevant aspects for this purpose, such as the control of the participants in the events, the carrying out of satisfaction surveys, or the sending of notifications about unexpected changes in the event (time change, classroom change, etc.). This article presents a tool that has been developed with the aim of managing this type of events in an agile and simple way for both participating instructors and students.
