Undergraduate Apply StepJane

When you are on the requirements tab the next step isn't very clear e.g. that they need to apply.

Would it be better to add a button or text under the major requirements list?

  • button under subject requirements
  • button at bottom of page
  • new tab which isn't a tab 

It woudl be good to have user testing results first before this work in undertaken.

Elevating Areas of Study / Qualifications /Postgraduate Subject AreasNigelWhat are the plans around elevating this new content higher on homesite? It would be good to discuss ideas around how and when.
Data captureNigelRegister your interest. How can we improve the data capture using these new pages?
  • require less information - less than 15% of people fill out form having clicked on it.
  • where does it appear and how needs to be worked through
  • what information do we capture
  • how do we capture information - could we capture it in a different system then upload it to recruiter?
  • could replace the survey pop up.
PG subject go live stepsPaulGiven that most school and many faculty site arrange PG information by qualification (and maybe then by subject), how can we best go live with PG subject pages? Do we restructure school pages or rely solely on our home page widgets?
  • rewrite the sections so that they work - pass this past Tash
  • list both PG subjects and PG qualfications
  • we may need to release pg subject pages without changing schools until all of the pg subjects are done.
Navigating from the Study options tab to a PG subject pagePaul

Do we want standard text for the block that will link to a PG subject? Or should we use the PG subject page introduction or metadata description?

For subjects have:

The title: Postgraduate study

Content: You can study this subject at postgraduate level.

Enhancement requests for study areas and UG degree pages

HTML Edit - Images and Links - Alt and /or TitlesMikeAdding these takes 70% of our time. Discussion around this thus far: Adding alt and title tags are not needed for MVP (Jane) and could be "thrown off the bus" if push comes to shove, we could write a regex to add these in a 'dumb' way faculty or school-wide, we could leave for content contributors to tidy up going forward. 

Another quick / happy regex would be to lower case page name / page short name
