Issues to resolve with the module template
- Module naming convention - I used the heading of the major section of the outline as my title and the module title line as the subtitle. That provides something of a map that people can follow from the on-line outline to the material and back. Do we want to standardize on that? If so then for example one of the sub-modules of this section would have the title Agency Requirements, and the sub-title NSF.
- Module author - Just me? What about reviewer's? Co-authors, etc.?
- Module organization - I just used NSIDC, but should I provide contact information? If this were a journal article I would...
- Is it acceptable to eliminate redundant pages - i.e., how flexible do we want to be in following the template?
- What domains and agencies do we want to be complete and specific on? Where do we draw the line? (i.e., NIH? DOE? ???)
- On the references and resources page - how self-contained do we want/need to be? How often will we need to update these pages?
- Now how do we pick which other modules are relevant?
- Can a module be too short?
- Now what exactly will we do when a person wants to take several of these and put them together as a presentation?
- Would it help to have the module title/subtitle on each page (perhaps in small text in the upper left hand corner?)
- At this point I think perhaps a writer's guide is indeed necessary
