The WLP project had its concluding workshop in Strasbourg 9.11.-10.11.2006. The workshop made a thorough examination of the current stand of the project work. The ain thrust of this examination was how to transform the hitherto produced materials into products for users. In this respect the key issue is the revision of website. Therefore, this blog entry takes up the issue of website already before the minutes of the workshop are available.
The discussion of the website was opened with my proposal on reshaping the website on the basis of four Product Areas and five Resource Ereas. The four Product Ereas (WLP Manual, WLP Course, WLP Web and WLP Reports) would provide different starting points for examining the work of the WLP project. The joint Resource Areas would present preparatory tools, tutorial tools, case stories and multimedia resources. The fifth Resource Area would contain the Partners' Areas (Piloting forums or Dissemination forums that would serve the partners' purposes).
(See the attached document Website-revision 1) The subsequent disussion was highly critical led to fundamentally different direction:
Based on this reasoning, the products and resources should be presented with the help of a box on the left-and side. The tabs of the box should give drop-down menus for exploring the resources under the main heading. This idea for revision was developed together and it reached a high degree of consensuality. (See the attached document Website-revision 2) However, when having returned to Bremen I had to work with the texts for the final product that had not been thoroughly discussed by the project (WLP Course). It struck me that the Learning Areas of the course will integrate some of the resources that had been to some extent disconnected to others. This gave rise to a slight modification to the joint result that was achieved in the Strasbourg workshop. (See the attached document Website-revision 3) With this posting I have tried to summarise the progress with this issue and give the starting point for the final steps for transforming the WLP website from a project-internal construction site into a users' website.
