The website can be the evidence for this criterion. • For merit criterion M3; the learner should implement improvements to their interactive website to improve site to meet the needs of the client. , The improvements must be implemented by using CSS (Cascade Styles Sheets) which may be internal, external or imported. This can be evidenced by the website but must be supported by a tutor witness statement. The created website should be visually appealing, easy to use, with an appropriate level of content but not overloaded, with the three interactive elements planned, and be suitable for purpose and target audience as identified. The improvements should be implemented for at least two different aspects of the site. Evidence of using these aspects can be visible through the completed site and/or appropriate screenshots. Learners may also record iterative testing carried out throughout the process. • Distinction criterion D2 requires learners to fully test their completed website using a detailed test plan/table testing each page of the website. Appropriate tests should be included that cover the functionality, readability, usability and accessibility of the website.
