1. I385E Class Site Redesign Dimitri Lundquist School of Information,
University of Texas Austin
Fall, 2006

2. Goals of Site
To integrate the blog with the rest of the site, both visually and administratively.
For students: easy access to schedule; information needed should be easily findable and schedule should have multiple modes of access.
Less centralized web administration / more user interactivity.

3. Task Analysis Checking assignments. Signing up for presentations.
Uploading deliverables.
Class communication.

4. Labeling Scheme
Overview conflates three sections of the old site: overview, resources, and policies.
Schedule driven by Wordpress schedule category and calendar plugin (more about this delight later…).
Specific categories which support individual page functionality (schedule, presentations, site critiques) are suppressed from appearing in the regular category flow.

5. Different facets of same object
