Since the University of Zurich required all departments to use the same content management system, a makeoverof our Main Library’s website was planned for 2017. Following Steve Krug’s book Don’t make me think, revisited,we reduced the contents and tried to build an easy to understand and straightforward navigation for the users. Toverify our concept, we arranged “do-it-yourself” usability tests. Three test sessions with three persons each weresufficient to find out what had to be improved on the website, and were more helpful than hours of discussionamong the team. Usability testing helped us to understand our customers' search behaviour and expectations fornavigation. It was also entertaining and a novel way of interacting with our customers.

This case study examines the use of committees to develop a Web content management system in an academic library. It explains the process undertaken at the University of Oklahoma Libraries (libraries.ou.edu) to move from an HTML to a database-driven Web site and the issues involved with using committees to steer such projects. Creating a framework where librarians use locally developed content management tools to control Web site content while the systems office retains control of the presentation of content is also discussed. Another aspect of the case study includes the evolution of Web committees in the organization, the development of a system-wide philosophy, and the gradual acceptance of the Web site as a service that demands continual attention. The authors hope readers will benefit from these experiences when implementing similar projects.

Este trabalho faz uma breve revisão do uso da tecnologia de worflow em apoio a ambientes virtuais de aprendizagem em geral e apresenta um caso particular de desenvolvimento e aplicação de um módulo ou ferramenta baseado nesta tecnologia,  denominado Workflow Course Manager, que foi projetada para ser integrada ao  ambiente virtual de aprendizagem TelEduc, de forma a convertê-lo em um sistema  completo do tipo Learning Content Management System. A incorporação da tecnologia de workflow a sistemas EAD visa proporcionar aos educadores poderosos recursos para a modelagem, construção, execução e gestão automáticas de cursos que utilizam a Web como meio de comunicação. As capacidades do uso da abordagem e dos sistemas nela baseados para a difusão e a gestão de conhecimento de natureza didática são analisadas, bem como sua potencialidade para contribuir na criação de um ciclo de melhoria contínua do processo em educação a distância.

The Hugh Williamson Gait Analysis Laboratory is a world leader in the analysis of walking disorders in children. Using state of the art equipment, highly specialised staff are able to determine why children walk the way they do. Knowing this, it is then possible to plan treatment individually for each child. Gait Lab aims to make thorough and reliable measurements of children’s walking ability in an efficient and friendly manner. It provides considered interpretations of these measurements to referring clinicians and conducts research to advance the understanding of human walking. This paper introduces The Gait Analysis Laboratory Content Management System, a contemporary approach using a Content Management System for surgery and research alike. The system provides the ability for surgeons to edit data and extract specific reports for research using the Internet from any location and at any time. The CMS has the functionality to save patient details, create referrals and make appointments, information which can be used for specific reports, during the surgery process, and for research around the world.
