Let’s Look at what we’ve got
(Getting the Wow factor
into your Class Website)
Slide8Best Practices for iModules Websites
Updating the Collegeemail security policyI have suggested that:
The relationship between members of each class is a special case
Classmates should be able to exchange emails directly and easily to encourage and facilitate that special relationship.
College should provision a page listing classmates names with ability to click to send an email
Slide9Best Practices for iModules Websites
Conditions for allowingdirect Email to ClassmatesContact information are be secured by College login Display prevents users from making a bulk copy of email addresses
Opt-out flag in their College profile to prevent their email address from be shared with classmates
A letter will go out to all alums notifying new policy with a link to profile flag to opt-out
Slide10Confidentiality and Restrictions
on use of email addressesClassmates who wish to access the list must first read and agree to the College policyRestrictions on use of email addresses should be written in plain, simple and brief language that can be read and understood
Statement defines the terms of use
Useless unless read and understood
Slide11The College has agreed
The College will build a new page displaying a list of classmates with the ability to click and email directly to any classmateIt will use the actual email address and your email system – not a redirected formYou will get bounce-backs and non-delivery noticesEmail addresses will come directly from the College database in real time
Slide12When will it be done?
We hope to have a working version out in 8-10 weeksThis is a bold, ambitious decisionThe first version might be imperfect and continued effort will be made to deal with improvements from what we learn
