  4. :: Today’s Agenda • Today is a full working day. • I will be walking around to check-in on the status of your two site maps. • Some thoughts on the site map creation process: • Always sketch your site map on paper first (not on the computer). • Consider using index cards. • Consider different visual options. • Consider using Power Point for speed and ease. • If you are having trouble fitting everything onto one page, consider editing/limiting your site map to only a few levels of depth, or consider using 2 pages to show the full site • Consider adding a legend if your site map requires it. • Remember to not only post your two site maps on your class web page, but also bring in a printed version to our next class.

If you used another program, please save out the images and then paste them into a power point document to be posted onto your class web page. • Reading: Read the online article: A visual vocabulary for describing information architecture and interaction design by Jesse James Garrett • http://www.jjg.net/ia/visvocab/
