Workshop Session A1: "Defining the Role of the Web Editor"
This page provides details for the workshop session on
"Defining the Role of the Web Editor".
- Title:
- Defining the Role of the Web Editor
- Facilitator:
- Ian Upton,
University of Birmingham
- Abstract:
- Until recently, authoring for the Web required a battery of technical skills
and know-how. The role was seen as a technical one that required technical wizardry
to undertake. Here at the University of Birmingham we are installing systems and
processes that remove many of the technological hurdles that used to exist when
creating Web pages for the corporate Web site. In the process we have to redefine
our views of what is the role of the Web editor. This workshop will give the
opportunity to discuss and define the role of the Web author as technology becomes
more transparent.
- Room Requirements:
- PC and data projector.
- Time:
- This session took place from 16:00-17:30 on Tuesday 27th July 2004.
