ASSIGNMENT PREPARATION: DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT PROJECT

Overview

For this course, you will create a functioning website on the topic of your choosing. This Design and Development project is designed to give you a realistic experience in design; as such, you will be expected to participate in making tweaks and iterating your product and design as necessary. Be sure to take the feedback you receive into consideration when working on each piece.

The Design and Development project includes the following assignments:

· Week 2: Pitch Deck.

· Week 3: Storyboard.

· Week 4: Initial Draft.

· Week 5: Expanded Draft.

· Week 7: Necessary Mobile Version Changes.

· Week 8: Complete Draft.

· Week 10: Final Site.

Scenario

You will be creating a single site that is viewable on a desktop or laptop, as well as on mobile devices. Your work begins in Week 1, by defining the kind of site you will create. As the quarter progresses, you will build on your concept, adding more elements to the site as each new topic is covered.

Requirements

To help you frame your ideas, here is a list of requirements for the site:

· Consistent design and color scheme.

. An external CSS document to control these aspects.

. CSS applied to a single page.

. Use of inline styles.

· Consistent navigation between parts of your site.

· A minimum of 5–8 pages.

· At least three external hyperlinks.

· An e-mail link with the subject filled in.

· A form (it does not have to connect to a database, because that is beyond the scope of this class).

· Properly placed images on at least three pages.

· The use of alert message on one page.

· JavaScript that adds value to your page. This could be mouse-over events for navigation, a photo gallery, form field validation, performing a calculation in a form (such as adding tax or shipping), et cetera.

Once you begin to write your pages in HTML, please add the following to a comment in theof your work:

Name, date, week #, class with section, and campus # (for example, CIS373001VA016).

Always zip your work into a single folder for uploading to Blackboard. You’ll want to keep each week separately so that you can review earlier iterations of your site in case you want to revert to something based on feedback from your professor.

Grading and Due Dates

This project is designed to give you a realistic experience in design; as such, you will be expected to participate in making tweaks and iterating your product and design as necessary. Assignments are due within the week they are assigned; however, you may have up to two weeks to work with your professor to make suggested or required adjustments—this is up to your professors’ discretion and is not guaranteed. Be aware that not completing a portion of the assignment means that you will not be able to receive feedback and therefore cannot tweak things, and that portion of your grade will remain graded as “unacceptable.”

Note: Students should look at the course guide to review the instructions for each project assignment.
