The purpose of the
AIR Web Site project is to provide
consistent anytime/anywhere online accessibility
to teaching, learning, and curriculum management
support for instructors through the use of
Web-based technology. This project serves as
a model for other components of a college-wide
performance support web (Virtual Learning
Commons).

Help us build this site
We invite everyone to participate in the final stages of building
the AIR site – suggest content for the main pages, add material to
SCORE, tell us what you’d like to see in YOUR new house. Use
the site as much as possible and let us know what you think.
Everyone’s welcome! |
Project Timeline
Year 1 - Concept and Design
Building
a web site is a lot like building a house – it happens in phases.
In Year 1 (2004-05)
of this 3-year project, we developed the blueprints – from concept
to layout to supporting framework.
Year 2 - Building the Web Site
In
Year 2 (2005-06),
we built the structure – the look-and-feel of the site (the walls
and roof), the basic subject layout (the rooms), and the navigation
features (the stairs and hallways). We even put in some content –
carpeting, appliances, countertops, and some storage areas (SCORE,
Shareable Common Resources) - like closets, cupboards, and shelves.
And we also hooked up the communication system (Sharepoint) –
analogous to a telephone and intercom.
Year 3 - Making it Habitable
So,
we are a work-in-progress. When you visit our Open House you will
find a lot of useful material on the AIR site – but please bear in
mind that it’s not finished by any means. We’re ready for Year 3
(2006-07)
and we would like your help in completing our site. We need lots of
content – the furniture and accessories. And, we need books for the
book shelves, documents for the filing cabinets, and supplies in the
cupboards. |
