CIS 152 WEB DESIGN I
Project 1: Personal Web Site
Instructor: Paul Young

 

 

 

Objectives

 

 

To be introduced to the principles of web site design. To organize information for communication purposes. To learn Google's web page creation tools.

 

 

 

Description

 

 

Design a personal web site for yourself and publish it. Tell the world who you are and what you are about. Your web site must have a minimum of five pages (one "home" page and four "inside" pages).

Note: One of your inside pages should be labeled "projects." This page will be used to link to assignments and projects from this class. Your semester grade will depend on what is published and linked from this page.

See example

 

 

 

Procedure

 

 

1. PLAN YOUR WEB SITE: Determine your objectives ("I want to share my interests with other teens" is very different than "I want to obtain employment as a web professional"). Research your target audience and write a psychological profile (see example). Email your profile as an attached Word document to pyoung@parkland.edu.

2. DETERMINE YOUR CONTENT: How many pages will you need? What are the titles of each page? How will your web site be organized? Collect or create the digital assets (words, pictures) that you will need for the content.

3. PRODUCTION: Using Google's Web Page Creator, produce a web site and upload your content. Be consistent with your typography. Check all of your links. Make sure there are no spelling or grammatical errors. Present your finished web site in class for critique.

4. REVISIONS: Based on the critique above, revise your web site as needed and submit it for grading by emailing the web address to pyoung@parkland.edu.

5. UPDATING: Continue to update your projects page as you complete each assignment for this class. Your final semester grade will be based on what is linked to your projects page.
