Give more prominence to student profiles on course pages #599

Open aw285-unikent opened 10 years ago

AS EMS

We would like the student profiles to have more prominence on our course pages.

To benefit from the importance of peer-to-peer info for prospective applicants.

Hi @aw285-unikent is it this profile design you want us to go for on course snippet? school-snippet-chronos-v3

aw285-unikent commented 9 years ago

Hi @eg270-unikent in theory, it would be great to have this (with the picture) the only problem is that sometimes we don't have a picture of the student who has give the testimonial. 2/10 times, we might not have a picture. We could perhaps use generic images where we don't have the student or ask the school for one but it might be hard to find generic pics at that resolution - is that 80px by 80 px?

aw285-unikent commented 9 years ago

@eg270-unikent could we do something whereby if there isn't an image, it just outputs without one but looks good? We'd just have to make sure that, if there are two profiles, we either have both images or none.

Hi @aw285-unikent @eg270-unikent

I've put this option together for discussion. It could be a generic profile panel. It uses and optional photo, a quote, name, title and link to a profile page. It could be used for staff of students. The entire panel would be a link.

For some reason the right-hand column on course pages is more than 33% wide. I'm unsure why. It may look more balanced if it was 33% and was aligned with the new student life promos below.

course-student-profile

Without a photo course-student-profile-no-photo

Here is an alternative. This does need a strong image to work.

course-student-profile-2

Thanks @jt353-unikent I really like all of these options. I will discuss this with @STC21-UniKent and @frithassell on Monday to get their thoughts too and perhaps we could have a quick catch up next week. Is the right-hand column in your designs above 33% or the same as the width on our live pages?

edelarose commented 9 years ago

@jt353-unikent can you follow up on the above question please?

edelarose commented 9 years ago

@aw285-unikent can we have a discussion about this? How are student profiles currently stored? Are they likely to have images already?

aw285-unikent commented 9 years ago

@eg270-unikent hi another one for the backburner - will review when Fritha is back

edelarose commented 7 years ago

@aw285-unikent can this finally be closed with the new beta pages?
