This week on EDU Checkup I only reviewed two sites. The first, UofM we learned if you are going to write a lot of javascript using a framework is the way to go. The framework will not only make your code cross browser compatible but also give future developers a common coding style that they can look up documentation on.
The second site, Centre College was not the best site I reviewed to say the least. Frankly its prime has come and gone, it looks like the site structure has not changed for many years. Its sad because they have so much potential, overall their information was there but they just have to get it in order and have someone in the web department rallying for their end users.
Both of these sites were by request, if you would like me to review your site or one of your competitors you can submit it on the Suggest a Site form.
