The grade for the final project covers the draft pages, the midterm prototype, the four design scripts, a Flash banner ad, a visual sub-project, and the final website.
The final website will consist of a set of about 10-12 different web pages, each in a distinct genre. These include a home page, two types of article page, a links page, a bio page, and a visual page based on your visual project.
Other pages may include (but are not limited to): a tutorial page, a time-line page, a feedback page, a map page, and media page (e.g., a Flash animation).
Two research-based short essays of about 1400 words each form the basis for the two feature pages of your final site. The first is a review essay of a non-fiction book. The genre of the second essay should suit your project.
There will be two quizzes covering HTML and CSS, one early in the semester and one as part of the midterm. You need to pass at least the last of these to pass the course.
Early web pages for the class include a web bio page and a further reading page.
