I wanted to share with you something that my students have been doing in BU215, Accounting Problems.
Here is the scenario:
- The registrar at The College has requested help in redesigning her forms. She's busy like the rest of us, so the class took about 8 of her forms to redo. We had students pair up. Students used the developer tab in Word to add text boxes, check boxes, added the college logo, and in some cases re-organized the flow of the form.
- Next, the students did a Jing showing the registrar a little of how they re-designed the forms. Here's an example: http://www.screencast.com/t/O50iPLmr1ItX
- Next, we took the "before" and "after" forms and bound them in a book.
- Next, the students created a free "Wufoo" account to show the registrar how these forms could be posted online. The College has a Wufoo account already, so the registrar office was particularly interested in this. But it's hard for me to show you here because I don't want to give any account information away!
- Finally, we invited the registrar and several others to attend a class demo. It was all I could do to keep others from picking up the registrar's copy of the "before" and "after" book!
