  1. NPSS Web Site Redesign Report to AdCom November 2nd 2013

  2. History At the last AdCom, $30,000 was voted for a web site re-design. Through teleconferences and face-to-face meetings with our account executive and senior staff at Cisneros Design we have initiated the development of the new web site. As a reminder, the current web site is based on templates originally created by Cisneros that Dick Kouzes, our webmaster, edits directly for any changes that are needed.

  3. New Design • The new design will have content pulled from a database and the content pulled and displayed can be dependant on, for example, the current date. Thus, rather than keeping the pages edited, only the database needs to have new content added when, for example, a conference goes through the planning and implementation steps. This means that content can have an expiry date and simply not be displayed if it is old.

  4. Details • For technical committees, there will be sections on each of their pages for different aspects of the information they wish to include on the page. If there is no information, then the whole section is omitted from the page automatically. • We are poised to implement and deploy and what follows is the suggestion from Cisneros after they have been through the NPSS site.

  5. Flow Analysis • On the following three slides the Cisneros flow analysis is shown.

  6. HOME PAGE Picture cycles between pictures appropriate for each of the headings. Clicking takes one to that page. We decide the time window around the current date for the conferences listed. For example: current conferences +2/-1 months

  7. . . .

  8. Technical Committee Data Format • PAP 10.25.13 • Technical Committees (tab formerly know as Technical Activities) • Computer Applications in Nuclear and Plasma Science (CANPS) • NOTE THAT THIS WILL BE THE STANDARD FORMAT FOR ALL TECHNICAL COMMITTEES. THIS LIST SHOULD BE PRIORITY Each TC should have access to edit their own material. • About CANPS • Who we are, areas of interest, topics of interest • Brief history • Conference sponsorships (REC) • Brief description and link to sponsored conference website • “Register Now” link to conference registration. • Last Conference report

  9. Technical Committee Data Format • Awards • Link to TS award • Link to Call for Nominations • Link to Past Recipients • Meeting information • Committee Membership • Officers • Subcommittees • Nominations for new members • Minutes of council meetings (pass protected?) • Constitution and bylaws • Educational resources • Other information (e.g. NRL Plasma Formulary) • Links to related sites • Join NPSS

  10. TC Editing Screen

  11. Comments from Cisneros - 1 • Review of outline for Technical Committee pages. • We’re trying to create a consistency among the Technical Committee pages. The outline (attached) shows the fields we will set up. If a TC does not have information to complete a field, the field will not show on their page. • The plan is to give each TC access to their own page. Q: do any of the TCs need help writing or editing their existing copy? • Re: Facebook and Twitter • These social media additions are pending a volunteer(s) to manage. Seeking someone familiar with social media marketing or blogging to serve as the FB and/or Twitter administrator for NPSS.

  12. Comments from Cisneros - 2 • Source copy for new content areas in the site • We are looking for someone to draft content for the following areas of the site. Either finished copy or a rough draft that we will edit for style. • 1. Intro about the value of membership for networking and connecting to employers • Women In Engineering • GOLD • Global NPSS – Serving the world community • The value of NPSS for Students and New Professionals • The Power of People Working Together (About NPSS/networking, education, recognition)

  13. Comments from Cisneros - 3 2. Promotional overview for each of the following Transactions: Transactions on Nuclear Science (TNS) Transactions on Plasma Science (TNS) Transactions on Medical Imaging (TMI) 3. Why You Should Consider Publishing Through IEEE (e.g. What we offer the authors).

  14. Comments from Cisneros - 4 4. “Get Involved!” – a section on the benefits and opportunities for volunteering benefits of volunteering volunteer duties and opportunities volunteer testimonials volunteering FAQs how to sign-up

  15. Images • We are currently drawing from our existing NPSS photo archive for site photography, but would very much appreciate any access or ideas for photos (with permission to use, esp. professionally shot) that we could use throughout the site.
