LA week 22 – Put thought into your design
LA week 25 – Planning the structure
As I had not done these two LAs I had to finish them before delivering w26. Here they are, well out of the time frame, but so be it.
LA week 22 – Put thought into your design
Design a 5-page website or blog to promote your hometown (or any other place if you so choose). Present your design along with a strategy that explains the decisions you’ve made during the design process (keep the six steps mentioned in the lesson Web Design Process: Designing for Web (part 2) in mind). Remember, it’s important for us to see how you think, so explain why you decided to do things the way you did.This is a front-end design learning activity. No coding or publishing is needed. Please upload this activity to your WordPress blog along with a Word document or PDF explaining your strategy.
Resources and equipment:
Design software of your choice
Microsoft Word or a similar word processor
The six steps mentioned in the assignment are:
- You need to establish goals.
- Who is your audience?
- What is your brand’s image?
- Solve the problem.
- Measure your result.
- Always look for little improvements.
LA week 25 – planning the structure:
Create the structure of your web page (from Learning Activity – Put Thought Into Your Design) in terms of HTML files and folders. You need to set these up so that you are ready to code your website.
First use a pen and paper to do your planning; then do it on the computer when you are sure of your structure.
Please upload this activity to your WordPress blog. Remember to scan and include your initial planning that you did on paper.
