Project Examples
Requirements
Starting this September, a group of 3-5 student-consultants will spend 25 hours per student (125 hours per team) working with your organization to recommend and implement a content management system (CMS) that best fits your needs. They will also provide training and reference materials, enabling your team to keep the site updated and organized.
Using Agile project management technology and knowledge gained from their computing and digital media courses, the student-consultants will help you design and implement an effective CMS website.
Example benefits include, but are not limited to:
- Marketing your product/service website http://www.westtownbikes.org
- Kickstarting your non-profit's fundraising efforts http://goodnewspartners.org
Students may use the following CMS systems, based on your requirements:
- Drupal
- WordPress
- Squarespace
- Weebly
- Wix
Additional company criteria
Companies must answer the following questions to submit a match request to this experience:
Be available to students for weekly sprint review & retrospective
This class employs the Agile methodology, which favors communication over documentation. Therefore, the student teams will communicate with you at least once a week by email or phone.
Provide a dedicated contact who will be available to answer periodic emails or phone calls over the duration of the project to address student’s questions or provide additional information.
