Documentation:Open UBC Website Sprint March 2019

On March 1st 2019, we will be working on creating the "Getting Started" content for the new Open UBC site.

• Time: March 1st 2PM-4PM
• Location:Koerner 216

Example

Example of Getting Started Page. There's multimedia content (for ex:video, infographics etc) on the side, and there's a "tab" which embeds seperate wiki pages.

• Get Started on the Open UBC site http://open-2019.sites.olt.ubc.ca/education/get-started-education/
• This page embeds 3 wiki pages:
  • The "What" tab: Documentation:Open UBC/Education/Get Started/What
  • The "How" tab: https://wiki.ubc.ca/Documentation:Open UBC/Education/Get Started/How
  • The "In Practice" tab" [1]https://wiki.ubc.ca/Documentation:Open UBC/Education/Get Started/In Practice

Format Tips

• See https://wiki.ubc.ca/Library:Open_Scholarship_Sub-Committee/Open_UBC_Website
• The goal is to make sure the multimedia content, the What, How and In Practices are related to each other. For example, in the example Get Started page, the "What" has a short explanation of what the multimedia content (in this case, video) .

Multimedia content beside the tab

• It can be a video,infographic, graphics, visual diagram.
• UBC related content is preferred.
• The multimedia content is related to the topic of the page.
• The multimedia content does not require prerequisite in order to understand (i.e. anyone new to the topic will be able to understand what it is about)

What

• Short overview on what is it about
• Approximately 200-500 words.

How

• How section should be comprehensive yet simple overview. Think of it as a poster section, bullet pointed and scan-able.
• Approximately 200-500 words.
• Links to Toolkits for longer "how-to"

In Practice

• Examples of what Faculty,Staff,Students in UBC are doing in practice with a link to the "Examples" sections
