Mockup with proposed new layout:
Andrij,
I like the look of the new page.
I have only one question before asking you to go ahead: Does the "Materials" tab at the top do the same thing as the Materials button at the bottom right?

Thanks for this feedback @llorracc!
Indeed the primary navigation menu and homepage links need to be reviewed. As you have sugested, they would could lead to some redundancy.
I am actually working on a second update to this mockup where we have access to all materials immediately from the homepage in a powerful 'search bar' — which would utilise Cameron's full text search to quickly bubble the most accurate and pertinent materials the user might be looking for from the homepage (as an added feature).
Let me rethink the primary navigation and I will past that second mockup here. Do you personally have any immediate leanings from your observation?
Cheers.
@llorracc has suggested a number of improvements to simplify the Information Architecture (navigation), since release of the updated website design. Ideally, this will bring the content structure of the website closer inline with the content of the Econ-ARK project.
Specifically, we are improving on the v1.0 section layout:
To a proposed new structure:
The new structure will bring forward the materials library as a global element. Hosting REMARKs and teaching materials that will live in their own respective sections.
The overall aim here is to improve UX and simplify the website navigation for new users, as well as making it easy for our team to share REMARKs and materials. We will promote the HARK toolkit and highlight REMARKs as the core source for collaborative value and submission.
Tasks (In progress)
