1. Added modules for BlackBerry® devices
Following the initial release of the Contacts module, Principalm+ v7.4 delivers full functionality for BlackBerry users with these modules:
Classes module: includes all of the data fields found within the Classes, Grades and Attendance tabs. The Classes module is available as an add-on.
Conduct module: includes all of the data fields found within the Incidents and Outcomes tabs. The Conduct module is available as an add-on.
For some schools such as an elementary school, the Contacts module may be all that is required to give administrators the critical information they need for day-to-day operations and to be prepared in the event of an emergency.
For a secondary school with the constant movement of students and staff around campus and heightened discipline and truancy issues, you may choose to have the full suite of modules – Contacts, Classes and Conduct.
Note: Principalm+ continues to support Palm and Windows Mobile devices and adds support for BlackBerry devices running OS 4.3 or later. Existing customers running Principalm+ on a Palm or Windows Mobile device will notice a slightly different user interface on their BlackBerry device, but Principalm+ is just as easy to navigate as a result of device operating system capabilities.
