- Assigning Date: Tuesday, October 27, 2009
- Web Site Due Date: Sunday, November 22, 2009 at 11:59pm uploaded on ANGEL
- Presentation: Tuesday, November 24 and Tuesday, December 1, 2009 at 4:00pm in class
Objective:
Use the combination of resources and skills you have learned through the Quarter to create a web site. The objective is to create a storyboard diagram, create a visual layout of the web site and then code the web site in strict XHTML and CSS. You are free to supplement images, the content and idea of the web site, however they must all flow together to make a well formed and complete web site. Any supplemented information or graphics must include reference to (copyright) owner. Coding should show even share of work/code among members (use HTML comments to show reference).
Technical Web Site Requirements:
- Team Members: Create the web site as a team of two or three.
- Storyboard: Diagram a storyboard of the web site showing all connecting links and layout of the pages.
- Page Count: If team consists of two people, page count is 8 pages. If team consists of three people, page count is 10 pages.
- Links: Each of the pages should include links to one another in a mixed structure of linear and hierarchical.
- Tables: Include at least one table for a data set of values as in calendar events, sport scores, or directory, etc.
- Web Form: Include one web form as a survey of your users. A complete form would include gathering contact information, providing questions of the survey, and the submission button. The form action should be sent to an email address (Does not have to be real).
- CSS Styles: Formatting and style will be used via embedded styles or an external style sheet. No inline styles.
- XHTML: Each page must include the XHTML Strict 1.0 DOCTYPE. No deprecated elements or attributes. All attributes must be in quotes and elements must be closed. To help further validate the syntax, use the W3C HTML validation tool located at http://validator.w3.org
- [EXTRA]: Provide a unique design element that was not covered in class, including items like RSS, JavaScript, Flash, etc. If you are not sure if yours is unique, please ask me.
Presentation Requirements:
Each team will have 12 minutes to describe their web site from the storyboard to the final web site. You may use Power Point or some other form of presentation to display your storyboard and web site. The team will be graded on the following:
- Project technical difficulty (You can implement each element, but if they do not connect and flow with the site, you will lose points here)
- Project code completeness
- Project originality and appeal
Project Turn-In Requirements:
One copy of the project must be turned into ANGEL by 11:59pm, Sunday, November 22, 2009.. Please compress the files into a .zip file and name the file "FP_", the last names of the team members, and the extension ".zip". Example: "FP_frankhouser_smith.zip"
Remember to remove spaces in all file names, include only the files used for the project (Erase any extra files not part of the project), and reduce image sizes to fit the location on the web site (Images with file size in excess of 1MB should be reduced).
** If you are interested in including your final project on the class web site, please indicate this at the time of turn-in.
NOTE: This group project will count as 25% of your final grade in this class.
