Princeton Site Builder Training: Websites for Faculty, Researchers, and Labs

Overview & Purpose:

We will take a broad look at the similarities and differences between the “Scholarly” and “regular” flavors of the Princeton Site Builder platform. We will focus on the necessary tasks required to make a newly-created website a unique one that reflects its owner.

Specific areas we will cover include:

• Starter Kit content
• presenting dynamic-looking home pages
• imparting a unique style by tweaking appearance options
• Courses, People and Publications content
• important administrative options.

Objectives:

• To resolve common issues encountered with the platform
• to impart a higher level of understanding the platform’s nuances
• to make it easier for owners to manage their websites.

Hybrid Classes

Classes will be held at 701 Carnegie Center, Room #131 (PC Training Room). There is room for 12 in-person attendees on a first-come, first-serve basis. If you have a specific preference for attending either in-person or remotely, be sure to email the instructor at veale@princeton.edu.

A Zoom link will be emailed to participants prior to class. Please note: you must be logged into Zoom with your University account in order to attend class.
 

Requirements:

If you plan to attend class in-person, the classroom is equipped with up-to-date computers with 24-inch monitors. You are also welcome to bring your own laptops.

If you are planning to attend class via Zoom, it is strongly recommended that you have either a large single computer monitor, or multiple monitors. The class is hands-on in nature, so you will need to have room for your web browser in which you will be conducting class exercises, as well as your Zoom screen in which I will be demonstrating how to conduct the exercises.

If you do not have access to a large enough monitor to contain both your browser and the needed Zoom windows, please attend the class in-person.
