| Review of recent scope, design and content decisions made by Paul and Jo | Team | Review feature release proposal Discuss '3rd party' dependencies and potential risks Review content for Topic pages Define content development approach and boundaries Re-evaluate release plan's timing estimation (both development + content) | Filtering - implemented in GSA
- Squiz queries GSA
- strengthen the results information
- would be a different look than the current functionality.
- time involved - max one sprint for both devs
Content switcher - will reuse existing webstruxures api
- need to redesign how it looks
- time involved - 1/2 sprint x2
Topic page https://vuw.sharepoint.com/sites/wipii/_layouts/15/GroupsDocuments.aspx - content stored in Squiz
- stories - could be structured by topics but could also tag it so it can be used in multiple ways. An API would be used to draw in the content to the correct place.
- could consider how pubs could use this but this could be scope creep so shouldn't have too much time invested in it
- Paul feels there is too many stories, Anne says Architecture is story rich because there are many subjects under this. So many stories have been included as there aren't images and video to enrich the content - the original agreement was for a media item per section and the only media available is quotes.
- Slideshow of images
- Joe feels having a gallery of images is too distracting but for Anne this should be a slideshow.
- currently captions are too long for the design.
- Where would the longer slideshow content be stored?
- people and stories page
- external page or Faculty and School.page
- is the MVP or something we need to work through with F&Ss to maintain a bank of student and project stories with images and ideally video.
- Potential we could rapid prototype of just the about page.
- this could give us a better knowledge of what % of content overun there is (or isn't)
- how many new patterns we might need to solve the content requirements
- quickest to do this in the wireframe
- Time involved: 4 hours in wireframe or 12 hours
- Andrew could also start to structure content for Tash and Tania to assess. Time involved: 1 day.
Student Services - SRAO content needs to be improved and this would need to be done by BAU, it would be good to have a list of the staff with photos so people can fine
- Same for student advisers
Related Areas - need to be able to specify order, alphabetical could highlight something more obscure
- there are too many related areas in some instances - Paul needs to work through how to reduce this list - ideally as a target it should be below 5, guidance not a rule, if the numbers are too high the value of the content is impacted negatively
- this could be done on the degree page instead of the topic page
People page - Time involved: one sprint
Study Options - We need to link to PG programmes
- More investigation needed about what the cheapest best interim solution is e.g. just point to existing content, create an interim page that then directs to more than one place
- Explore PG options needs somewhere to point.
- Example of courses - nominate 1-6 courses, these could be changed around annually.
- Time involved (including careers) 1 sprint
Degrees - When you go through to a degree depending on where you came from
