Page Comparison

https://www.mitsolar.com/

• Landing page has more information with an about us and a link to the vehicles.

• Team Pictures have information overlaid on top so name and position is seen when the mouse hovers over it.

• Obvious Join Us Page

• Keeps the Viewer engaged and interested

• Keeps the information clean and neat and makes the team photos look more uniform

• Ensures those who are looking know how to join the team

• Menu Bar and other information is hidden so this may seem like it is everything

• They use photos from a specific location with team shirts, we don’t have that due to covid so it may not come out as good as they did it.

• Security issues with how the page would function

• Add more information in the landing page but don’t hide the menu bar

• We could use the overlay to give more personal information like name course and graduation year while still separating according to teams.

• Can have a join us page but keep a secondary page linked from there that isn’t obvious like on our our team page to link to the area with our confluence slack and email account.

1. Landing page has a bit of about us

2. About us with a collapsable boxes with sub team names that expands with a general summary when mouse hovers over it

3. Does the team in a similar style to MIT but adds in a logo place holder for team members who didn’t give in a photo

1. Gives a bit more information about the team

2. Looks really neat without the mouse over it and looks short and sweet while also providing information when mouse hovers over it.

3. More cleaner as it shows names when hovering over it only but provides program as well

1. Not that I can see

2. Information is slightly hidden as it is at the bottom of the page and not intuitive as there is no indication that it expands.

3. Not many disadvantages

1. Add more information in the landing page

2. Can use this method to make the page look crisp and clean in a sense that information is short and straight to the point while still keeping the same information.

3. Can use this style as it looks more modern and professional compared to our current layout.
