The statement is ironic but true. About the only thing that’s consistent in technology is change, and so it is with the EdTech Department’s web site. It will change sometime today, though no man knows the hour.
But I can tell you WHAT will change.
Just about everything.
The new web site has some interesting new features. For example, when readers go to the Master of Educational Technology page, they’ll see a billboard of important benefits and features at a glance—things investigators want to know—such as:
• Accreditation,
• Number of credits,
• The no-GRE-requirement,
• Totally online, etc.
The billboard changes every few seconds. Readers can also click on tabs to move the messages across the screen more quickly. The page also has an on-demand video and the M.E.T.’s curriculum at a glance.
The first thing current students will notice is the absence of the three colored bars that trigger drop-down menus. The drop-down menus are gone, too. Instead, web users will find a nice, complete menu at the bottom of each page. Once we all get used to the newness, navigation should be fast and easy.
When the new web site is launched, we invite you to explore it and tell us what you think. What works well for you? What doesn’t? Projects of this size make perfection unlikely, so help us out and tell us what you think.
Send comments to jfoster@boisestate.edu and I'll pass them along. Thanks.
