Next steps with TSR (coming soon)

Last September we made some big changes on the site, we have been evaluating those changes and making plans as to what we do next… In December and January we ran a survey on the site when we gave away a Nintendo DS and a Camcorder. In that survey we asked site users loads of questions about how they use the internet for help with their studies, how they use TSR, what they like about the site, what they’d like to see improved and what new features we should introduce. We also got feedback in the survey on some of our own ideas. Since then we’ve been running a series of focus group sessions with students at a range of stages in their  education, some of them had used TSR before, some hadn’t, some were long term users, some were moderators. We have been putting together all of the information we have learnt from these activities, as well as what you tell us in the About forum and all that has influenced our plans for the next steps with the site. Some of those plans are short term updates, for example changes to navigation and namings of links. Others are more substantial developments. In the next few weeks we’ll be unveiling these plans to you which will be rolled out gradually between now and October/November. There’s some really cool stuff! I’m particularly excited by the plans for customisation of the site so you can tailor some parts of the site for how you want it to look with the features you want to use. More details to follow on the forum in the coming weeks. FYI – It was a no score draw at the last Wii competition I think. Better commentry will follow the next encounter. – J
