Brief

How can we integrate events into our academic technology website?

Solution

Display the event datatype (created by the backend dev team) in multiple custom-designed views on a page dedicated to events.

Process

The web team was tasked with adding events to the academic technology site, teaching.missouri.edu. These events prepare professors to use a variety of digital tools to manage their online classrooms. The application used for managing these events, LibCal, didn't have a function for grouping events, which made organizing bootcamps particularly difficult. We were tasked with creating a single place that would serve as an event hub and be easily linked in faculty newletters.
