Wor-Wic Community College
Wor-Wic Community College is a fast growing institution located in Salisbury,
MD. Offering courses for Information Technology comes with some
responsibilities. One of those is a website that, not only represents them but,
displays their ability to utilize the latest technologies. Regardless of the
variety of disciplines, in addition to IT, that Wor-Wic Community College
offers, their needs for a functional website are great.

Goals
Our goals were to create a new image for the Wor-Wic Community College website while
increasing the efficiency and accessibility of resources and information of
both the professor and the courses they teach for a more effective learning
environment.
Challenges
-
Adapt the custom graphics of artist Craig Costantino of CSC Design, to be
utilized in a web interface format.
-
Create a secure database-powered administration area to allow faculty the
ability to add, delete, and modify their own personalized areas within the
college website complete with class based themes, content, and image controls.
-
Develop a web-based software application that allows students the ability to
submit writing assignments to the college's writing clinic for review, and the
ability for the instructor to make the review and resubmit it back to the
student complete with corrections and instructions. With this, an
administration module was also required to manage document flow and control.
-
Provide the college with technical consultation, to include troubleshooting web
server issues.
