2. 1 www.aacc.edu
Site Background
www.aacc.edu is Anne Arundel Community College’s public web site. The
content is stored in a database and the pages are dynamically generated
using an in-house ColdFusion-based content management system.
The site features a content search and a course search; the
ability to login to the college portal from any page, and allows content
contributors to create and update pages using a variety of templates.
Role/Responsibility
I managed/produced this project from the ground up by leading and
facilitating the site’s architecture, design and programming needs. I
continue to oversee the production of this site, along with the applications,
such as forms and/or other user needs and requests.
I have included a project plan example, along with the facilitation method,
and an example wireframe.
6. 2 MyAACC
Site Background
MyAACC is Anne Arundel Community College’s portal site which provides
single sign-on point-of-entry and features services for students,
faculty and staff. Students are the main audience and the portal is a major
mode of communication that not only provides access to e-mail, but also
access to online learning, class registration, bill/financial aid payment,
grades, advising appointment scheduling, online tutoring, and group
collaboration.
Role/Responsibility
As with AACC’s web site, I also managed/produced this project from
the ground up and continue to lead the effort. This site has gained
national recognition and is referenced often in the higher education
portal community.
Because this site is only viewable with a user account, I have included
screenshots in the next two slides for review.
9. 3 AACC Intranet
Site Background
A recent addition this past year to the portal is the AACC’s newly
revised Intranet site which allows faculty and staff to access pertinent
information more conveniently. This site also utilizes the college’s
in-house content management system.
This site features a forms search mechanism and updated navigation.
Role/Responsibility
I served in the capacity as project manager for this site, however, this
site served as a mentoring opportunity for a junior project
manager/producer who learned how to manage a large-scale site through
this project and my guidance. I also designed and provided the graphics.
Because this site is also only viewable with a user account, I have
included screenshots in the next slide for review.
