CE Forum Restructure - Feedback Please!
CEans,
We have been talking about re-organizing CE forums. Lately, we have grown and the aim of restructuring is to make the forum easier to understand. Since we cannot afford to change the forum structure often, we need to be very careful while redesigning the forums at this time. Therefore, your feedback matters!
Look at the proposed structure:-
CE Headquarters
CE Technical Discussions
CE General Discussions
CE Lounge:
Do you have better names for the sections? Ideas for new sections? Any suggestions or feedback? Please do reply to this post!
Awaiting your replies!

Ashraf HZLooks alright so far!
Can we add a tutorial section as well? Or is that under CE Labs? Members can contribute tutorials of their own or something like that. xhx has some nice tutorials about parallel programming.. and he can add his MATLAB stuff too! -

Tutorials will go on the portal and simultaneously posted in one of the sections. I think we don't need a dedicated section for tutorials.ashLooks alright so far!

xheavenlyxThe "CE Technical Discussions" set-up is really good.
Personally I don't like the word "Careers" in "CE Management, Entrepreneurship and Finance" ! 😀 Do we want members asking for internship, job help, interview advice, CV advice, and useless Q's on ""what is best job wher I find money"". Because Present CE Finance has 34 good threads management and amateur business related (Very interesting threads like the make Rs.1000 from Rs.50).
For that, what do you think if you have just one more other section "CE Higher Education and Careers". This section have help and Q's on Higher Education, Career planning, Jobs, interview tips, how to write CV etc etc, some can also write threads on present market for fresh engineers, u know...
As for CE Labs and CE In focus, this is my view:
CE Labs will have the tutorials, articles, student thesis, projects and CE projects (CE bot etc), all technical and/or academic kind.
CE In Focus can be:
CE Productions: Interviews, Magazine, CE Video etc 😀
or
CE In Focus: Interviews, Magazine, CE Video etc 😀 -

I agree, since im guessing a large proportion of CEans are still in higher education! (including me 😛)xheavenlyxFor that, what do you think if you have just one more other section "CE Higher Education and Careers".

EDIT: There are some posts regarding help to solve problems (I guess assignments/homework). Possible new section for this? I hope no one would really abuse that, though.. -
xheavenlyxI think Project Ideas and Seminar Topics can be kept as a general help too, dont know how many people will read older post and still keep on asking for "Seminar topics plszz help!!1". We dont want to double on General help and the above, Project ideas and Seminar Topics.
The serious CE Projects and other user projects that members want to share can come under CE Labs! 😁 -
Ashraf HZPerhaps we should keep Project Ideas and Seminar Topics seperate from General Help, xhx. That way, CEans can have a place to discuss their own uni projects and the like. Don't really want to clog up General Help 😉 Of course, I agree about serious CE Projects being under CE Labs 😀
Btw biggie.. Can we have a new section where new members can practice creating threads and posts? I saw it once on another forum. CEans can post in anything they want so they can get used to it. Every week or month all posts will be deleted or emptied. What do you think? -
xheavenlyxI think yea, after I re-read the forum name "General Help", you changed my idea. In general help they can also ask about other topics, not related to engineering.
Thats good. -

The "Project Ideas & Seminar Topics" section was created to host the requests/answers related to "Final Year Project and Seminars". However, I think CE - Labs should be the topic where we should host cross-trade discussions/ ideas etc ( Say, Lab is where all engineers gather and discuss/create stuff). For example, a robot design discussion may invite comments from engineers belonging to different engineering disciplines.ashPerhaps we should keep Project Ideas and Seminar Topics seperate from General Help, xhx.

Regarding the section where new members can try to learn how the forum system works, we have Newbie Training Center. I think we can move it down under CE Lounge.
CE - IT Help, I think should be merged with Computer Science Engineering. Let's have all computer related discussions in one section only.
CE - General Help - needs a rework. I think the name confuses many new members. -
Ashraf HZOh, icic. Didn't know about the function of the Newbie place 😛
Regarding General help, we may need to have an extra one regarding college and university applications! -
friendster7cool but still more work to do...cannot we put the ce conference at first..
-
friendster7guys a suggestion ...cannot we make the member list in order..(ie cannot we put each member in his respective group)..it is in a huge list in alphabetical order can we make based on their individual group..
