Development Diary 4

Todays lesson was a very constructive lesson, because today we were introduced to a new way of presenting our website, before actually creating it. It involved us drawing it out like a story board and indicating were the movements occur with the website, as well as a description on each page. So myself and Patrick constructed this in our first period of our double period, though we actually submitted it in our second period. I actually found this quite useful, as it allowed myself and my group member to communicate more and allocate features, instead of just starting a website and being interrupted along the way. Also in our first period we were marked on our e-portfolio, which conatined our contract,meetings and calendar. I believe that we had done very well in this department as myself and patrick planned it in the long run.

In the second period, Ms West began marking the individual tasks, though she did not have enough time to get around to myself or my partner, even though both of our websites were complete. Also we made some further clarifications on our website and our chosen organisation. We were also reminded that our e-portfolio had to be updated before the next checkpoint, so myself and my partner resumed doing our e-portfolio. We also mucked around with dreamweaver testing out some colours etc, that we could use for our site. This was because Ms West had not yet given us feedback on our web layout.

For tommorows lesson if we get our feedback we will start our production of our website and continue to research its contents and images.
