Year 9, now onto 2. Develop a Design Brief

This is the part of the project in which you will conduct research that will help you be able to create an HTML webpage.

To drive my investigation, I will research the following questions:
1.  What is HTML? (Definition)
2.  Who created HTML and why? (Explain, include details.)
3.  Research and analyse a brief (but thorough) history of HTML and the internet
4. What was life like before the internet?
5.  How does HTML work?
6.  What are tags in HTML coding? (Explain, give examples.)
7. When coding in HTML does it matter if you use UPPER CASE or lower case? (Explain.)


Use in-text referencing, create a Works Cited page, and you will need to evaluate your sources;-)

Year 9,  this is our star project of this year.

In Term 3 we will become contributors to the world wide web by creating HTML websites which will promote an author/artist/musician/historical figure. 

Unit Question:  How can CT be used to promote culture in the 21st century?
AOI: Approaches to learning
Significant Concept:
         Students will understand that it is possible for each of us to contribute to other people's learning.
         Students will understand that it is possible for each of us to communicate on a wider scale with others            through the internet.        

Today we will begin our project by starting the Investigation.

1.  Identify the problem:

You will write an introduction to your project. (2 paragraphs)  

Paragraph 1: You will explain the problem and discuss its relevance. You will describe what the problem is and offer a solution.  You will state your audience. 

Paragraph 2: You will also relate the problem to Approaches to Learning.
