Assignment Task 1

Task Description

Designing a Web Site on a Topic of the Student's Own Choice

A written assignment designed to ensure that you meet the learning outcomes.

You are to provide a written solution to all four parts of the assignment.

1. Students are required to

·         Select a topic to form the basis of a web site, the topic to be agreed with the tutor. Task 2 will be to build this web site.

·         Specify the target audience and overall objectives for the web site.

  • Produce a detailed design of the web site (as specified below).
  • Define how the web site will be both tested and evaluated.
  • Discuss the process of producing the web site.

2. When built, the web site will achieve the following:

  • The use of HTML code to format and display text and pictures within the site.
  • The use of both graphics and hypertext links to allow effective navigation between different pages within the site; effective navigation between different sections of a page (if appropriate); and links to external web sites.
  • The use of appropriate Java applets and scripts within the page.
  • Provision of the means of appropriate interactive response(s) with the user. This may include one or more of the following: access/interaction with a database; use of forms; provision of e-mail or any other appropriate mechanism(s).

3. The student's discussion of the process of producing the web site should include the following:

1)    A definition of the sort of users that would be expected to access the site. This should incorporate a description of any special provision needing to be made to make the site usable for disabled users (if that is appropriate).

2)    A list of the objectives that the site is designed to achieve.

3)    A discussion of how the target audience would be attracted to the site.

4)    A critique of one or more other comparable sites, with discussion of the similarities and differences between the other site(s) and the student's design.

5)    A diagram (or site map) showing how the different pages within the web site will be linked, together with a diagram showing how files within the site are   organised.

6)    A description of both server and client-side computer facilities needed.

7)  A discussion of security and site maintenance issues as they apply to the site.

4. Documentation should include:

1)    A site map, together with a description or listing of how files are organised.

2)    Story boards/descriptions of each page that is intended to be part of the site.

3)    A test plan showing how the site will be tested, and what data will be used in the testing process.

4)    A discussion of how the site will be evaluated.

5)  A short report (up to 600 words) describing how the site will be maintained and discussing how its security will be enforced.

 

Task 2

Assignment Description

Building a Web Site on a Topic of the Student's Own Choice

1. Students are required to

  • Build the web site designed and specified in task 1.
  • Outline any changes made to the design produced in task 1, explaining why those changes were made.
  • Report on the testing and evaluation carried out on the web site.
  • Demonstrate the site produced to the subject tutor.
  • Describe any envisaged future enhancements.
  • Describe what steps they would take to enable their site to be found by search engines.

2. The web site should have achieved the following:  

1)   The use of HTML code to format and display text and pictures within the site. Web page design software (such as Dreamweaver) may be used in the production of some code, but at least three pages must be produced using a simple text editor (such as Notepad).

2)  The use of both graphics and hypertext links to allow effective navigation between different pages within the site; effective navigation between different sections of a page (if appropriate); and links to external web sites.

3)    The use of appropriate Java applets and scripts within the page.

4)    Provision of the means of appropriate interactive response(s) with the user. This may include one or more of the following: access/interaction with a database; use of forms; provision of e-mail or any other appropriate mechanism(s).

 Documentation should include:

1)   An updated site map and description or listing of how files are organised, together with an explanation of any changes to the initial design that have been made. Third party material, such as Java applets and scripting code may be used (with the permission of the original creators).

2)   A listing of the code for all pages within the site.

3)   References and acknowledgements given for all third party material used.

4)   A list of the test results.

5)   An evaluation of the success of the site.

6)   A discussion of any future enhancements/modification to the web site that are envisaged.
