<p class="MsoNormal">Hello Faculty,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">UITS has unveiled their purchase of <a href="https://campuspress.com/">
CampusPress</a> – which is a free-to-faculty WordPress hosting platform. This is a brand-new service, so I can’t vouch for it, but it comes from a commercial vendor that specifically targets academia. If you’d like to learn more, please visit
<a href="https://sites.arizona.edu">https://sites.arizona.edu</a>. Wordpress is touted as an easy-to-learn content management system, and is very popular for no-code web development.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Separately, my team (<a href="https://cct.arizona.edu/">Communications & Cyber Technologies</a>) provides web development, hosting, and data science services. We primarily design and develop departmental and grant-based websites using content
management systems (such as Drupal), lightweight GIS and web-based mapping applications, mobile applications, and R-Studio/Posit “webified” apps.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">That said, we have created a few interactive lab websites for various faculty, including:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<ul style="margin-top:0in" type="disc">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-top:0in;margin-bottom:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3">
<a href="https://helpsavewildlife.org/">https://helpsavewildlife.org</a><span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-top:0in;margin-bottom:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3">
<a href="https://ramirez-andreotta.arizona.edu/">https://ramirez-andreotta.arizona.edu/</a><span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-top:0in;margin-bottom:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3">
<a href="https://jkbrownlab.arizona.edu/">https://jkbrownlab.arizona.edu/</a><o:p></o:p></li></ul>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The last two examples were built using a web-building platform called CALES Quickstart –<span class="apple-converted-space"> <i>a tailored version of Drupal,</i>
</span><i>based on the <a href="https://quickstart.arizona.edu/">UA Quickstart</a> framework.</i><span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>These sites are quick for us to stand up and make it easy for faculty to create content. It costs $200/year to host
this site on CCT web and database servers, although this fee is often waived and funded through department investment into the
<a href="https://experimentstation.arizona.edu/">Arizona Experiment Station</a>. If you have more questions about either platform, please reach out.<o:p></o:p></p>
