Semester Project
For this course you will be required to complete a 5 page website as a semester project. The website will be based on a topic of your choice. For example, you might choose to create a website about a special interest or hobby, or a family member/friend's business. You might even decide to create a portfolio for yourself. Be sure to pick a topic suitable to be presented in class.
The project will be divided into three major sections: the project proposal, comprehensive mock-ups, and website implementation. See below for a breakdown of each part of the project and due dates.
The project proposal and comprehensive mock-ups will act as a guide when you reach the implementation stage. If you choose to change your topic after the proposal and mockups have been submitted you will not have to re-submit these documents.
