Transcript and Presenter's Notes

Title: Woodrow Wilson School


1
Woodrow Wilson School
  • History
  • One of Princetons first academic department
    sites, started 6 years ago
  • Began with basic Graduate Program catalog
    information, now has comprehensive departmental
    information

Woodrow Wilson School
  • Rationale
  • Independent from the start because central
    services didnt provide needed functionality
  • Unix-based, because that was the available
    platform
  • These choices are being re-examined in light of
    new central technology and services

  • Central site developed primarily by one IT
    professional (1/2 FTE)

    assistance, sometimes with outside consultants

    be involved with content management

  • Use of Dbtoolbox for forms and database
    information retrieval

  • Future - additional resources

  • Future - WWS site Wish List
  • Need for comprehensive identity for all
    communications, publications, web site
  • Content oversight must come from content experts,
    not IT staff
  • More dynamic content, interactive forms,
    calendars, site login, chat and bulletin boards,
    event registration
