NOTES
FAQ’s
In favor of a sub-committee to put together a campus wide frequently asked questions page to add to the
ECC web site. Lyn Clemons will provide questions that have been created up to this point and send to
the group to get feedback. Lyn will be bringing a list of questions for the June 15 web meeting.
Phase 2 Review
Reviewed all the departments web pages that are in the process of being worked on by omni users and
the web developer. Reviewed areas that still need to be transitioned to the new template, some areas that
are under construction or don’t have anyone trained in omni the web developer will be taking info from
their department/program brochures and putting that into a web page for that area.
Web Standards Draft distributed. All Committee Members will review and offer feedback.
Web Accessibility
Discussed that our pages were all checked for 508 compliancy before launching the website, Lyn
Clemons stated a logo for bobby/508 compliant should be placed on our homepage. Credits should be
added to the Communication Standards Guidelines (Web Section) for site wide ADA compliancy.
Adobe Acrobat Standard Software for creating word, ms publisher documents etc… to PDF
Adobe Acrobat Standard Software was discussed as a standard software program to implement campus
wide for all web users to convert necessary files to post to their web pages. IT will need to be contacted
for campus wide site licensing. Budgets need to be discussed to implement as necessary. In the
meantime if your department doesn’t have it you can send the files to Melanie Graves to convert to PDF.
ECC Web Address for Printed Publications
All printed publications should have the ECC web address only. Example: http://www.elcamino.edu
Departments should not list their individual web pages on printed materials, such as
http://www.elcamino.edu/studentservices/fao/ - (Financial Aid Office) This will eliminate the need to
reprint documents if directories or web pages change locations on the ECC web server.
Online Web Calendar
All Departments can be issued their own department web calendar accessible to users of
www.elcamino.edu – via Calendar of Events. This calendar should be requested through Melanie
Graves, mgraves@elcamino.edu or ext. 3883. A demo of the calendar will be presented at the June 15
web meeting. This calendar is to be used to post student/campus wide events, and dates of interest to the
general public. All department meetings, internal announcements should be posted to the Outlook
Calendar.
Web Trends
A software tool is currently available on the ECC web server that will allow campus wide tracking of all
web pages. This will give various stats on unique visitors, hits to pages, top pages, directories visited,
etc…The link below will be sent to all web committee members to view current stats of the general web
pages of the ECC web site. http://infonet/its/network_support/stats/index.asp
Please check January 2006 statistics for www.elcamino.edu that is the only month tracked so far. The
details of the tracking features are still being worked out most importantly we want to be able to get stats
for all web pages within each department.
