Professor Fluffy Campus Quest App launched for school visits

The Widening Participation and Outreach team have released a new app for school visits to the University.

Professor Fluffy’s Campus Quest is an app designed to increase engagement during campus tours. The app is based around 13 ‘hotspots’ on campus, notable locations which would be mentioned on a traditional campus tour. Each hotspot on the app is GPS activated and contains facts and images about the location, as well as interactive activities designed to increase engagement with both the campus and University as a whole.

The app also has a ‘game’ element to it, with stars assigned to each hotspot to earn, and a university grade assigned at the end of it.

Available to all departments

This month visiting students from St. Finbars Primary School were able to use the app for the first time on their campus tour.

Departments who wish to organise campus tours for visiting students can now download and use the app to enhance their campus tour.

The app is available to download on both Apple and Android devices.

For further information or support in using the app, please contact Sarah Hanson sarah.hanson@liverpool.ac.uk.
