Mobile phone application development is the new high-interest opportunity for Information Technology degree programs. Good skills and a great idea can start to earn students money and a reputation as the lead developer in their own start-up firm. A great mobile
application course can yield tangible benefits to students long before they graduate. With the release of the new Microsoft Windows Phone 7, students have an opportunity to develop apps for a great device using Microsoft tools that are very powerful, enterprise
scalable, yet easy to learn. The mobile device form factor is ideal for teaching intro or advanced programming and software develop courses because the small screen, limited controls, and consumer versus industry focus provide intuitive scope boundaries and
use cases. Student’s love their mobile devices and adding mobile development to your course catalog will attract students to your program and have them eager to learn more. Microsoft Research's Project Hawaii is an academic outreach and research dissemination
project. The academic goal of Hawaii is to enable graduate and undergraduate university students to gain understanding and expertise in developing cloud-enabled mobile applications using the Microsoft Mobile and Cloud infrastructure. Project Hawaii is a collection
of cloud services, hosted in Windows Azure; a Visual Studio 2010 based development SDK and sample application code; a community forum for exchange of ideas; and, mobile platform hardware (Windows Phone 7). Faculty attendees
