Create

Let's take a little quiz to see how you are doing.  Remember you need to insert your first and last name so you can get credit for the quiz.  The name of the quiz is "HTML - Decode the meanings". http://www.quia.com/quiz/3171150.html

Then, either finish your Designs OR

Start creating your page.  Remember that you only have 15 school-days  to complete this project.

Although you don't have a "Plan" I would still like you to produce a Process Journal and write a reflection paragraph.

The Process Journal should be in diary form and include print screens.

Include a paragraph detailing and justifying any changes that you have made to your design.

Now on to Criterion B - Design.

First we need to look at the assessment criterion - http://www.box.net/shared/bqgkc1ri7t

Remember that in order to get a 5/6 you must:

1. Generate (make) 3 different but possible designs,
2. Evaluate each design against your design specification (one way to start is: Design 1 meets my design specification because . . .),
3. Choose 1 design and write a paragraph to justify your choice (fully and critically justify your choice against the design specification - include pros/cons, compare/contrast against the other designs, ask others).

Remember you have been evaluating web design for years and this is very similar to the Wiki Design so you have lots of experience;-)  This will be a snap!

Before we begin . . .

Good Morning Year 9. Before we begin the design let's spend another day exploring tutorials so we know what basic html is capable of.

Let's watch the video together. . .

Then, you try it.
