LAST LESSONS (Thursday 2nd, Fri 3rd, Monday 6th Dec)

You should be doing task 7:

Task 7

Make a new page in your blog, with the following sections:

• Pictures of your website

Open your website in internet explorer, and take screen shots of each of your pages. Post them on the page in your blog.

• Stakeholder feedback

Get each stakeholder to view your completed website, and provide in-depth and detailed feedback. It might be a good idea to build this into your blog as a survey, so you can get specific information and a clear record of answers.

• Evaluation

Evaluate your website in a new page on your blog.

Consider:
- The brief
- Key Factors
- Specifications
- Principles of good web design
- Overall impact and effectiveness

• Mark scheme

Find the file in the T-drive called 'Miss Daniels Website Design Mark Scheme'.

Save this file, along with your SharePoint file in your project folder. Mark you project using this scheme.

In your page in your blog copy and paste the mark page onto your blog page.

5 period of class time left...

TIME......

You guys start your junior exams next Friday. When you finish exams, there will be a few days on normal class timetable, before you have junior activities.

You should be aiming to have:

• Tasks 1-6 FINISHED (including your finished SharePoint file) before you start Junior exams
• Task 7 (evaluation and mark scheme) finished before you start junior activities

If you are not on track to do this then you should be working on all written / blog based tasks in your own, time, and working on your SharePoint file in class.

TASK 6

So you are meant to be up to the task where you actually make your website with SharePoint Designer.

Remember if you are behind, you need to be completing written tasks in you own time (e.g. homework) so you can use lesson time to learn how to use SharePoint.

It's not the easiest software to learn to use, and its part of the project that you learn how to figure it out, so look for help sites / videos, and ask the students around you how to do things.

End of lesson posts

Remember you need to write each lesson what work you have completed , but also evaluate the work.

Here are some examples of how you might do this (DONT just copy and paste, I will know!)

• "Today I didnt complete as much of the task as I should have. Its meant to be finished by today, so I'm going to have to finish it at home to catch up"
• " I finished task three - I think that the analysis of other sites was done really well because I found 10 other websites and evaluated all of them, but I might need to add some more detail to the second section - I will ask the teacher"
• " Today I worked on task 4. I think my design layout ideas are really good, and the stakeholder feedback I got was really useful. I'm choosing idea three, but going to make a few changes like my stakeholders said"

17 lessons......

You guys only have about 17 periods of classtime left...

because of junior exams, activities and prizegiving!

No time to waste.....

Task 3 / stakeholders

Hi Guys,

Here are some general issues with your work:

Task 3 part 1

- when analysing other similar websites you need to have at least 5 sites, and talk about WHY its successfull of not e.g. layout, design, speed......

Task 3 part 2

- Lots of people are not listing all the stuff they are going to use in their actual sites - just cut and paste of put links. This should be everything you need to make your actual site

Stakeholders

Think about using the blog features to include electronic feedback from stakeholders - it could be a comment on a post or an inbuilt survey (http://www.surveymonkey.com/)
