Using uni-terra: an overview
uni-terra offers participating academic institutions a mini weblog system with which they can publish information about themselves and their activities in a structured way:
- Create a profile describing the institution, their teaching and research profile and who may take part in courses offered together with full contact details for the institution and a contact person.
- Contribute written articles, for instance an event description, a dissertation abstract, details of a research project, a notice for a ‘call for papers’, details of institute facilities etc.
- Upload images to include in written articles or as ‘front cover’ visual titles for articles.
- Upload files such as Word, PDF or zip files to be made available for downloading, e.g. papers, academic articles, registration forms etc.
Logging in to the weblog admin
Each participating institute receives a login which they can use to enter their information via an weblog admin: www.uni-terra.org/login/.
