I think my earlier reply only went to Claire.

 

We (Lancaster) are aiming on releasing exactly this behaviour next week. We're using the "two page" approach, even though the majority of information will be the same.

 

We've made it configurable, such that we can be dual-running for part of the year (e.g. April-clearing), but go back to displaying a single year of entry in September.

 

Cheers,

Hi Claire.

Interestingly I have been looking at this recently. I cannot give you statistics but it is a mixed bag from what I have observed. That said, those institutions that choose to show more than one year seem to favour multiple pages for this information. I have to say I agree. It can be confusing when different years appear together on a page.

Hi folks

Quick question:

Do any of you have separate undergraduate course information online for different years of entry (e.g. 2015, 2016) or just one set of course information to cover all years of entry?

This could be a can of worms, but I will see where this goes. . . .

Cheers

C.
