Culture of Workplace

I started the meeting by showcasing websites that will inspire the team and assist them come up with solutions that will allow the public to browse the site without any problems.

We talked about the design concept and that the website needs to be transform in sort of a block- style design. We assumed that it suitable for the public to navigate easily without having to scroll down and see too much text. With this style, We website would come out with an authentic and organized presence. For next week, we will present our design ideas by showing some examples of themes that is visually appealing in a WordPress website. In terms of dress code, even though it’s an online internship, my co-workers are always wearing formal clothes. Although it’s not an in-person meetings, I see that everyone from the team is determined to dress appropriately.

Openlab Evaluation

Everyone gave their thoughts on City Tech OpenLab at the second meeting. A issue in OpenLab was discovered during the presentations. Although it states that there is a friends list, students are not able to add friends. One of my assessments that I felt was superfluous is “Who’s Online?” Only a maximum of 12 persons can be viewed, and those who do not wish to be seen online are not granted privacy. Additionally, when you navigate down the webpage, the rows labeled “Courses, Projects, Clubs, and Portfolios” become confusing. It appears like the rows are connected or related to one another when you scroll down without seeing the category name.

Additionally, I gave my feedback on the website. We talked about the issues with the announcement section in the mobile website, in my notes, I wrote ” The announcement space is not shown in a better way.  It only shows letters  and pictures. I think there should be like a video or something that can be visually appealing to the audience.  I find it difficult to scroll down the sections of the announcements, in order to see the sections, necessarily, we have to tap the bullet points.”

 I also talked about that I’ve been working on a research project inside a program ESP( Emerging Scholars Program) . That I been investigating on a health related topic which was conducting medical research based on the disparities in women’s health issues and the effects of endometriosis. After the explanation, I suggested one website that caught my interest while I was doing my research on my topic.
