Presented by:Jui-Ching HuangSabrina HarrisMichelle AuEiko ToguchiNaoki Iwane
Topics • Method used for research • Key findings from stakeholders • Comparisons • Our findings • Current vs. Prototype • Recommendations
Methodology • 10 online surveys and 2 personal interviews with CSS students • 5 online questionnaire surveys with business students • 1 interview with faculty and 2 staff together • Comparisons with other colleges CSS websites
Findings From Stakeholders Positive • “Ok website” • FAQ’s helpful • Reduces some work-load of staff
Findings From Stakeholders Negative • Not enough internship or job information • Intended target of CSS website is prospective students • “Too basic, it’s so cheap! It doesn’t even incorporate server side scripting our anything related to our times. If I was new to this school, it would detract from my expectations.” • Very confusing finding the information needed.
