Abstract

The use of public pages for study units helps to promote strategic aims of the university in the provision of information gateways, ease of access to and global sharing of information, marketing, student decision making and the promotion of e-learning. Using a case study and examples the paper will show why and how a team of people with skills in graphic and web design, educational development, e-learning and content expertise marry the requirements of aesthetics, functionality and content to develop a series of public pages, including splash pages, to establish a visual identity for and textual information about a unit of study.
