Campus Media
ChannelNTU
The ChannelNTU
system is driven by the Scala
digital signage solution. With this new publishing solution, the content
creator can seamlessly combine text, graphic, sound and video into
broadcast-quality multimedia on the computer. The new system allows users to
author and schedule professional media in an attention-grabbing environment for
virtually any type of display application. It now gives users more creative control with the files they have already
produced with other industry-standard applications. When the content is created, it can be readily distributed to the multiple
plasma screens around campus.
The publication of new
content can be triggered automatically at set schedules,
with the built-in FTP server. The intelligent file transfer also allows
different screens on the campus to show different contents. Multiple designers
can work on a project simultaneously, and the administrator can perform Remote
Player administration of files, synchronise clocks,
reboot machines, etc. The administrator can monitor the status of all players
through the software.
The Nanyang
Chronicle is a student-run campus newspaper, published by the Wee Kim Wee
School of Communication and Information, once every three weeks. The Chronicle
provides campus news and information as well as being the voice of the campus
population. The paper also provides practical training for undergraduates who
are keen to work in the field of journalism after graduation.
NTU Tribune
The NTU Tribune (or Tribune in short) is a publication
of the NTU Students' Union. It is published
monthly from July to October and January to April. The publication discusses
issues of interest to students, touching on topics such as academic matters,
health and welfare. It also advertises and covers events organised by student organisations.
In addition, it collects feedback from students through surveys and interviews,
and reports this feedback in the publication.
