@akshika47 @Minuri_Adasuriya How do we need to display the “Sri Lanka Education Forum” logo in Academix page. 😊 Should it be like “Our mentors…” section?

 ![Screenshot from 2020-06-12 12-34-20](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/sef/original/1X/d5e6903acf71fd13eb3d4c2c3af22e9f50b34612.png)

Any suggestions are welcome! Thank you!

Adding a separate section like that would be a distraction. It is better put the logo around the place **Explore** button as we have only single collaborator. In the AcadeMix screen shot there is the **Learn More** button. With the right spacing add **AcadeMiX is built in collaboration with** followed by the **SL education Forum logo** (following line).

@akshika47 Okay I’ll work on this. Thank you for the suggestion 🤗. TBH final version isn’t ready yet. It’ll take a little time but we’ll finish this project as soon as possible. 😅

ok! @jaye could you please create a recurring event for the stand-up on the SEF calendar? @shyamal has also asked for it. It would be convenient for everyone.

@jaye I created a calendar invitation for the meeting and added the old meet link in the description to join. After today’s call please change it a link generated from the SEF mail. Double check for the attendance list too. I don’t think I have added everyone.

Yes that is good! but maintain the calendar meeting as that would help everyone to sync the meeting to their calendars.

I’ve sent a fixed PR to handle non 200 statuses in categories. Here’s the PR of it.

I’ve added the SLEF Logo for the academix page. Should there be any changes in this?. @akshika47 🙃

Text looks cluttered. Some suggestions are as follows.

1. Reduce the logo size of EFSL.
2. Have some space vertical space between the description and the line about collaboration
3. There should be more space between the description and the hero image. I think you can shorten the length of a line by going into the next line. For example, the first line could end at the word “…education resources available” and rest of the line goes to the second line etc. Do this as you see fit, but the outcome should be to have some negative space between the description and the hero image.
4. Swap the places of Teachers and Kids and if these are the only categories -\> centre align the two elements in the bottom line.

With the Categories can we spell it out a bit more? like:  
Instead of School say _GCE A/L & GCE O/L_  
Instead of Kids say _Kindergarden & Primary_  
A new category called _Junior Secondary_

@Gimhan_minion I’ve updated the dbase with descriptions for all 🙂 hope this will help with the upload. [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1uSyHqwa\_ShB04SCcrmSYOOktFxNZarkkc3R2YhSTV-4/edit#gid=836617386](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1uSyHqwa_ShB04SCcrmSYOOktFxNZarkkc3R2YhSTV-4/edit#gid=836617386)

If you need anything else from me or have any questions on the categories/classifications, please let me know. I know a lot of the content repeats itself across multiple categories - not sure if this required for the backend or if there is anyway we can make it more efficient to reduce duplication?
