Review and Catchup
This class session will be used to review material from the quarter, or to compensate for "slippage" from topics that exceeded their allotted time.
If there's something that you'd like to be sure we cover in this last class, please add a comment telling me what it is.
Group Project 2: Final Site & Presentations
Final project presentations will be done during our final class meeting.
You should be ready to present a version of your site that has the full information architecture implemented, with content on the main page, any second-level (main topic) pages, and at least one set of third-level or below (specific content) pages implemented, as well. More is better, of course, but it's possible to get a good garde without all content being completed.
I'm not going to provide a laundry list of technologies to implement on the site--your use of technology should be to facilitate the user experience, rather than to meet a set of arbitrary criteria. That said, effective and appropriate use of the technologies we cover in class--from client-side scripting to back-end scripts--is expected.
Your final project grade will be based on three components:
- Design Document (20%)
- Final Site and Presentation (40%)
- Peer Evaluation (40%)
As you can see, the peer evaluation is a significant component of your final project grade, so if you haven't been pulling your weight in the project up to this point, now would be a good time to step up to the plate and prove your worth to your groupmates. :)
Here's the Peer Evaluation:
