06.02 - Beyond Social - updates

On May 27 and 27 I teplaced code base which was running beyond social, in order to fix the frequently broken images bug and to gain efficiency. If you notice something out of the ordinary, please let me know.

I've also be trying to put in place a preview a page preview system and update function (a link anyone can use to update the site), yet those two are being harder to accomplish them I expected.

I've added more video feauture: both vimeo & youtube can now easily be embedded; See how in http://beyond-social.org/wiki/index.php/Wiki_tutorial#Youtube.2FVimeo_videos

Notes

complains

  • failure of open aanbod
  • difficulty in developing publications:
    • lack of content
    • lack of strategy to work with students w/ aim of producing publications
    • lack of basic knowledge from students: HTML, CSS,

suggestions

  • involve station's staff in the teaching and planning of modules for majors and minors
  • plan a course : Essential hybrid publishing that will teach basics of hybrid publishing. Mandatory to all Graphic D. students
  • other strategies to produce publications with students?
    • book sprints ?
    • recipes on wiki ? (written by students. Scrapped and applied a style for digital(site,epub) and print)


collaboration with editorial design project

By June have a manual with the basic of wiki. How to make it your own, and what are the problems you encounter.

A package that can be used by others.

How can others can understand it and use?

a package that others can use

what is the aim?

what would help communicate what it is?


On a practical side: we need a system that works well enough.

  • a manual

the generic way to work with the wiki. within the system, there are the things you have to keep in mind.
