Objectives:
During the course of this project, the various working groups created their own pages. The Website Group served as the final arbiter, working with the other constituent groups to ensure consistency of data, visual display and overall organization. Group goals were to ensure that the site can be easily used by both the general public and advanced researchers, is clear in structure, and serves as an impetus for further research on Duke student activism. We tried to achieve this by clearly linking our sources to materials in the Duke University Archives and other special collections libraries, providing information about student organizations and efforts, bringing in other open-source material, and supplying a timeline which charts activism at Duke University during the 1930s and 1940s.
Organizing the work:
The Website Group gathered work contributed by the Research Group, the Timeline Group, the Text-Mining Group, and the Documentation Group to create the final website. Members of the group worked closely together to organize and produce the final product, which is hosted on Drupal, Duke University's content managment system.
Group members:
This group included Arianne Hartsell-Gundy, Lee Sorensen, Laura Williams, Greta Boers, and Brittany Wofford. Michael Daul, Digital Project Developer, has also been crucial to the success of the group’s work.
