Finding Course Info - staffJane Young (Unlicensed)Engineering staff couldn't find where to see the course information when they were guiding students.
  • Staff are used to how the pages used to be so I think this is a case of not being familiar with the new content. I don't think staff are being given a heads up on the change.
  • When sending out the final check and release emails I do tell them to let their staff know. However, I will make this more detailed and provide them with an email to send out to their staff.
Finding Course Info - studentsJane Young (Unlicensed)Based on our survey and the feedback from Engineering students may not be clearly identifying the next step. This could be possibly be solved through design or content tweaks.
  • It would be a good idea to do testing ahead of making any major changes so we aren't making our corrections based on assumptions.
PG-only subjectsPaulDo PG-only subjects get covered on the area of study branch/url? Or can we have them on the PG subject branch/url? And what does this mean for the writing?

From last week, but we probably need Jane to make a decision or at least be present

cons

  • we wouldn't be able to have them as related areas of study
    • Related areas of study are an ug feature - jane
    • Help people find subjects when we call them different things from other universities - Paul
  • AOS - would have to have two different patterns for the Navigation page
  • On the homepages you could have an Area of Study and subject looking the same but acting differently
In page links

Automatically generating related links from in page content.

e.g. http://www.victoria.ac.nz/study/preparing/parents-whanau

Open up a javascript console and run this code:

We could potentially add this script in as a widget (with appropriate styling), removing the need for editors to manually add in links. It will be pretty trivial to implement in squiz, but needs some discussion about how we integrate it with existing related links/content.

 
EnhancementsJane

Talk about anything new on the enhancements list

Enhancements to Areas of Study and Degree/Programme Pages

Paul has been parking ideas (his and from other people) in two epics, one for improving AoS pages and the other for ug degrees.
