(meta area here) Temporary wikipage set up for our re-design proposal for the mindmaps wikispace (/meta)

Team members:
Joanne Couling Oscar Menjivar David Hsu

notes:
Our discussion so far has been done via audio (Cisco) and email and a partial note area done via Google Wave.

Proposal:
We propose to re-do the layout of the wikispace to make it a little easier to navigate.

items of note:
The title of the paper would link to their paper if it is on Mindmaps. If it is outside this site, I would propose we link to it or to the author's action research website. Subject matter could also be considered a subject area focus or even tags for the paper to facilitate searches. This way, students could quickly look for papers that may be related to their field of work.
 * we would like to add a dropdown menu to navigate to the different cadres
 * we would like to add a student directory (of current and previous cadres) for those who are willing to talk to future cadres
 * to make navigation through the wiki easier, on longer pages we would also suggest navigation shortcuts to headers within the page. a brief table of contents at the top or in a side box would aid navigation
 * we would like to have an area linking to all of the action research papers of previous cadres in the following format:
 * ~ Author ||~ Cadre ||~ Title ||~ Subject matter ||

We'd need to survey all Cadre 13 members to assess how best to distribute responsibilities. Much could be done in small teams (tagging, searching through previous cadres pages, presentation etc). Other possibilities include putting some of the work out to each prior cadre.
