Digital Architecture
• Company that provides two online
solutions

– Curriculog- an online curriculum
management system
What is Acalog?
• KSU began using Digital Architecture’s Acalog in 2008.
• This solution allowed KSU to move from producing physical
undergraduate and graduate catalogs to publishing the
catalogs electronically on the web.
• Acalog is used by hundreds of colleges and universities.
• Acalog allows:
–
–
–
–
Easy clicks to access catalog information
Formatted and searchable sections of the catalogs
Ability to make real-time corrections to the catalogs
Interactive options that enable social media integration,
including personal catalog portfolios and mobile device
versions of the catalogs accessible on smart phones.
What is Curriculog?
• A newly developed curriculum management online solution.

curriculum proposals
– Online curriculum proposal forms customized for KSU
– Ability to set up review processes for each curricula action type
including rule-based routing customized for KSU
– Setting up curriculum meetings and agendas online
