We are going to switch gears from coding for a moment and put the focus on "web design". Chapter 4 in your textbook is all about visual elements and graphics so now is a great time to take a look at some design elements, the purpose of a website, and its audience.
After completing this activity, you should be able to:
- Work in a group environment to collectively assemble a one-page summary discusses the purpose of a website chosen by the group
- Identify and explain the intended audience for the website
- Discuss and explain whether the website effectively reaches its intended audience
- List and explain the colors and/or graphics that are used on the homepage of the website, background, backgrounds of page sections, text, logo, navigation buttons, etc.
- Explain how the use of color and graphics enhance the website
