Web Design - Week 2 Schedule February 3 - 7

Review of week 1: Painting and Editing Images Design Principles from The Non-Designer's Design Book Proximity Alignment Repetition Contrast PowerPoint presentation on Design Prinicples Which principles do you already use? Which principles do you need to put into practice? Research in Pairs on Design Principles Find examples of web pages for each principle. Review the summaries for ideas. Check out more than one page on each web site to see if the design repeats throughout the web site. Suggest improvements for the pages. Examples must include web pages for schools, organizations and corporations. Here are some to get you started: Sequoia High School San Mateo County Schools Santa Clara County Schools American Cancer Society American Heart Association American Red Cross Adobe Software Apple Computer Bank of the West Boeing Company General Electric Company Hewlett Packard IBM Nike Union Pacific Railroad Create a simple web page (or a series of pages) that explains how each page that you found is a good or bad example of the four principles. Use four separate sections on your page(s), one for each design principle (or create a page for each principle). Use subheadings to define the sections. Link to each web page that you researched. You will have at least one school, organization and corporation web site for your principles. Use Lists or Tables to organize your research on your web page. Use the design principles on your own page(s)! Refer to your rubric to be sure you are meeting the requirements.
