Basic vs. Final Website • Basic website: • Good first draft effort • Must be published at proper network locations (and therefore the proper web address) • Will be used as the basis for a peer review activity

Peer Review • Each student will look at three other websites and evaluate their quality. • You will prepare a series of PowerPoint slide and three on-screen videos discussing your conclusions …
Final Website • Final website: • Hopefully will benefit from the ideas that come from your peer review • Should contain your best, finished ideas • Will be graded subjectively by your instructor based on writing quality, content, style, and creativity.
Ideas about feedback forms • Your website must include a feedback form that will send you an email message • You will start with these feedback form instructions • You should build a form that makes good sense for your website’s purpose
Thinking about borders • Nearly all websites use a logo or graphic in a top shared border • Some sample websites • www.sullishak.com • www.allen-house.com • www.buy.com
Creating an interactive website of value Information-only website are dull because they “talk at” you. Think through what you would like to know about the people who visit your website. You do not need to complete the site to take full advantage of what visitors tell you – build a prototype.
Today’s work sample • Put your name prominently at the top of the card. • Draw a sample page with a border, logo, and menu bar. In the body of the page, include an on-line form useful for collecting information from visitors.
