The development of mash-ups is everywhere, yet until now there has been insufficient research and development of mash-up applications for use in Higher Education. In this work we focus on mash-ups in Higher Education: their potential, how to provide training for users, and how to assess their effectiveness in the dissemination of information. A mash-up architecture consists of three main components: first is the content/service provider, second is the provider of the editor used to create the mash-up, and lastly is the server to host it and the client to whom the mash-up results are presented. In this work we investigate the available mash-up editors from which we chose one; we used the selected mash-up editor for the development of a mash-up application at University Teknologi PETRONAS. {\^A}{\copyright} 2011 Springer-Verlag.}, keywords = {Data mash-up; Development methodology; Higher education; Mash-up editor; Media; Social; Users; Web 2.0, Information dissemination; Software engineering; User interfaces, Education}, url = {https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-79960367200&doi=10.1007\%2f978-3-642-22170-5\%5f25&partnerID=40&md5=347ac185947257645d53578d3bc30692} }
