Class Portfolio Version 2
Due: Week 15
Description
A website that will showcase all of your in class and homework assignments. The visual design of the site should be clear and uniquely yours. This second version should be a substantial improvement over the first version.
Requirements
Basic Requirements
Meet all requirements of v1.
- The portfolio will have sections (such as assignments and projects). Your portfolio should consist of several pages (versus one long list of links). Example structures are available for you to use as a starting point.
- Individual assignment and project descriptions and links (assignments and projects are individual sites separate from the class portfolio). Include the description of the assignment and information about how you created it (what was your approach? why did you make the design decisions that you did?), a link to the actual assignment, and any further information required by the assignment or that you wish to include. If it is a project you must have a screenshot.
- Full and consistent navigation on each page. The actual projects and assignments do not need global navigation, but the sections for them do.
- Pages must be valid XHTML.
- No functionality errors (for example, no broken links).
- Customized CSS and design (if you use one of the templates you must alter it).
An individualized and well-executed design is required. Building on the previous version, your Class Portfolio version two should have a unique style and look that is considerably more polished. Having gone through an additional 10 weeks of the course, ideally you will have learned more techniques (and perhaps even tips or tricks) to enhance the visual appeal, organization, and markup (or php coding) of your initial class portfolio. As with the initial version your site must validate and meet the other requirements outlined for version one.
