Ties That Bind
I have been working on a site for the Colorado Council on the Arts providing Folk Life resources for classroom use. Originally the project was to be a little static site--no more than 20 pages--that would have served the purpose that they needed. However, in the last few weeks I have been working to "Drupalise" the site.
Using Drupal, I am enabling the content owners to be able to simply edit content on the site using TinyMCE once the site is set up and properly configured. In addition, if they ultimately decide that the content ought to have a life of its own, they will be able to use forums and blogs in core to really engage teachers and students in the classroom. If they want to add content in the future, it will be relatively simple.
In the case of Ties That Bind, I have been digitizing old audio tapes for the council which are being converted into MP3s using Audacity--one of my favorite open-source audio capture applications. These will be linked to the appropriate content page.ÂÂ
The full text of Ties are in PDFs, designed by my friend Cristina Arnal.
