Kiosks for Education
Self-Service Kiosks for Schools, Colleges & Universities
The Netmania IT multi-function kiosk is the perfect IT solution for the education sector, capable of carrying out a range of functionalities including network account creation, password resets and money loading. The kiosk can be integrated with your existing applications, pupil/student databases or web applications. In this way, the kiosk becomes highly tailored to your school, college or university, providing a one-stop solution for all of your technology needs.
Kiosk Applications for the Education Sector
Our kiosk solution can support a whole host of applications. Here are just a few of the apps currently available:
Library App
The kiosk library application can link into existing internal systems and subsequently enable students to check the availability of library books/CDs/DVDs and order any which are found to be unavailable, as well as reserve items for collection. This app is especially useful for multi-campus establishments, and where the site of any one campus could be spread out across a large area. So rather than students trekking all the way over to the library building only to discover that the book/CD/DVD they need is already out on loan, they can check on the kiosk beforehand.

Online Shopping App
The beauty of the Netmania IT kiosk is the fact that, if your school/college/university has an online shop, the kiosk can display this to your students and visitors. In this way, people can use our kiosk to access your website and purchase stationary, textbooks, exercise books, branded mugs, and so on, via your online store.
As a result, the kiosk can help you increase revenue by giving people the option to buy online, for example, if there is a queue in the university shop and they don’t have time to wait, or if they wish to purchase a number of textbooks but prefer not to carry them around or worry about transporting them.

'You Are Here' Route Finder Software App
This clever software application enables you to make your digital site map available to students and visitors simply by uploading your floor plan(s) onto the Netmania IT kiosk. This will then help students and visitors to navigate the school/college/university with ease.
The system also allows you to create specific routes, for example, to show parents how to reach the main school hall on parents' evening. Creating routes to be loaded onto the kiosk is easy; prior to upload, you simply go through the map on-screen and set the route through a series of mouse-clicks. You can also add directional comments to provide further assistance.

PC Booker App
The PC booker application can link into existing internal systems and subsequently enable pupils to reserve time on one of the communal machines using the kiosk's user-friendly interface. They can also check PC availability without having to visit the computer suite itself - they can simply do it remotely via the kiosk which may be located, for example, in the canteen area. Indeed, if there are kiosks dotted all around the school/college/university, this improves the student experience even further through increased accessibility.
Timetable App
The kiosk timetable application enables students to view their individual timetables on the Netmania IT kiosk interface. This is possible due to the fact that our kiosks can be integrated with your existing pupil database. In this way, course codes and specific student information can be added to the kiosk with ease to help pupils who, for example, may have lost the paper copy of their timetable.
VLE (Virtual Learning Environment) App
Kiosk’s VLE (Virtual Learning Environment) application is the ideal platform for hosting any educational software which your school/college/university already has. So, for example, if you have interactive sample exam papers to help students prepare for forthcoming assessments, these could be uploaded onto the kiosk to enable pupils to use the touch-screen prompts to answer the questions and improve their knowledge.
Notice Board App
The great thing about the notice board app is that it’s the perfect way to display all of the latest information and announcements about your school/college/university. Administering the announcements on the kiosk is very straightforward and the information displayed can be changed and updated quickly and easily as the daily notices change.
