Using "Designing a blueprint" as an example212:11, 24 March 2015

Using "Designing a blueprint" as an example

I'm wondering if it would be better for the link to the example (just above the table) to be to the course outline (with instruction to scroll down to the third learning pathway under "Courseware"), as it includes links to each of the pages (which you can't get to from the objectives page).

and then we would make the example as it is described on this page better match the outline:

  1. The name on the outline is "Designing a blueprint"; the name used here is "Developing a design blueprint".
  1. The learning pathway page names in the table match the names of the pages, not the names in the outline.

Just some thoughts.

Well spotted, and I agree with your recommendations. I have implemented these changes in the wiki included using labels for the subpages which are consistent with the navigation labels / page titles.

While in the wiki, the outline page is technically an internal link - I have specified this as an external link which is a requirement when we generate the course snapshot. In the course snapshot, any page which is listed in the outline is treated as an internal link on the course website. Because the outline page is not included in the course outline, this must be specified as an external link in the target website which is why I have used the external link syntax.

Does this resolve your queries?

Thanks.

This looks good. Ah, but now that the challenges are split into three parts, I wonder if the table should reflect that. Maybe in the row for each challenge, have three bullets: Start, Tasks, Outputs, including links for each. It seems picky, but it may help people recognize the structure?

The use of external WE links makes sense now. I didn't realize and I think I may have changed a number of links to internal which would violate this rule. I'll look back through my edits and also check for these when I go back through all of the pages.
