The Department of Art Education’s refreshed site was launched on May 5. The new look follows the Fine Arts trend with bold imagery and colours, a simplified program structure and improved accessibility on the application process pages. Alumni testimonials make use of the individual profile template, ensuring a consistent look.
Project was realized by Sarah Sookman, Diane Leyland and Andy Murdoch.

Accordion component: code fix brings better UX for authors
Some of AEM’s components have quirky personalities. You’ve probably noticed that when you work with certain components (Accordions, Box, Column control), your AEM page jumps around for a few seconds to reset itself. This jumping (page reset) behaviour can affect your efficiency and productivity (and is sometimes annoying because you can lose your place on the page while working). But for accordions this is no longer the case thanks to the latest code update. Now you can add and edit accordions without the page reset.

Concordia’s Case for Support was recently updated and needed a brand-new digital look to go with it. The site is now lighter, with fewer child pages and an emphasis on top-level pages that better showcase the campaign’s priorities, objectives and impact.
