The October 17 team recently completed a web redesign of CivicMirror.com for Action-Ed Learning Resources. Civic Mirror is a uniquely interactive simulation-based learning program that educators actively engage their students in learning about government, law, economics, or citizenship. However, the feel of the website didn’t speak to the program’s fun and progressive concept.
We were tasked with creating a cleaner, fresher and more professional site design, as well as integrating WordPress as a content management system. Our team reorganized the sitemap for more intuitive navigation and improved usability. Along the way, we also found opportunities to implement more obvious calls to action and to include social media channels: Facebook, Twitter and YouTube. The result is a more modern and relevant (not to mention attractive!) site that makes it easy for the users to find the information they need.
Below are ‘before’ and ‘after’ shots so you can see exactly what we did!

What do you think? Judging by the testimonial we got from the folks at Action-Ed, I’d say they were pretty happy with the results:
“The October 17 team is the best! Their professionalism; attention to detail; utilization of top standards and best practices; and their friendly personalities are second to none. I would highly recommend them to anyone.” ~ Regan Ross, Creator of the Civic Mirror, Action-Ed CEO
