website evaluation

#1

I like all the pictures they put up of the different people in all the shows. All the links for all the people are good. It has a lot of information on each person. I think that the design was going in the right direction, I just don’t like the color. It is too dark for me. Makes it seem like it’s suppose to be gloomy or scary when it’s really just an informational blog.  I’m not a big fan of the font. You kind of have to scroll for a while if you want are trying to find someone. A search box might be helpful.  Overall, I think this is a good website.

#2

I think that this website is a really good and simple one. It is very easy to follow. It is not word heavy. All you have to do is look for the subject you are looking for and click that link. The colors in this website go well together. The rotating pictures at the top with caption are also a good idea. The only thing that I would maybe add is a search box, but I think that it is easy enough to follow probably doesn’t need one. Overall, a simple yet good website.

#3

This is a different website I guess you could say. To start off with the good, it is not word heavy. It’s simple and to the point. It has links to all the different kinds of training. There are pictures to go along with all the types of training it has. The colors are red, white, and blue for our nation’s colors. For some reason the website seems a little childish to me. I think it’s the stick figure logo they have. I don’t like the repeating background that there is. Think it would be better to just pick a simple design or color for it. Overall, I would say a decent website.

#4

It is a simple website, not word heavy. There are links to everything. Good pictures to go along with what they are saying. It seems pretty professional. There is no color background, the pictures bring the color to the website, but still looks good. I think that there could be a brief summary maybe for the purpose of the website. Other than that I can’t really see anything else wrong with it. It’s a straight to the point website. Overall, it is a good website.

#5

This is another different website. There are a lot of links to different topics and there is a search box. It tells the purpose of the site. Has a lot of pictures to go along with the text. I don’t like the design and layout of it. It’s too dark for me. I don’t like all the different color fonts. There’s a lot of text but it’s an informational website so I guess that’s fine. This is a weird website to me and I think the colors make it worse, but these are all the creators opinions. Overall, and ok website.

#6

This website seems professional the way it is laid out with the pictures and text. Not text heavy. Has a brief summary and then quotes from people about the subject of the website. There are links on the side that get you to certain places about the website. It gets to the point of the website. The way it scrolls is kind of weird to me. Overall, I think this is a good website.

#7

I really don’t like this website at all. There is so much text in this that I don’t even want to read it. The color of the font clashes with the background color. This is just plain weird to have a website like this let alone have cars like this, but that’s just my opinion. I guess you could say the pictures go along well with the topic. There is no design or layout to this website. Overall, not a good website.

#8

Another website that is simple and to the point. It is not text heavy. There are links to all the different subjects on this website. It is easy to navigate through the website. I think the design is good. It is dark and the subject of the website is dark so I think they were trying to get people into a sad mood when looking at this so that they would want to help the causes. The graphics go along well with the text. I can’t really find anything wrong with it. Overall, a very good website.

#9

This is a very colorful website. Think is had the right amount of text for each subject. It has links to more information below the subjects with link on the side to also help navigate through. There is a search box. The pictures go good together with the text. I noticed the social media links. It explains the point of the website. I believe the design and layout out of the site is good. I don’t really know if i’m a fan of all the colors. Overall, I think this is a good website.

#10

This website has good rotating pictures at the top. There are links at the top to help you get to where you want to. Also, there is a search box at the top. It says the purpose of the website. The graphics go good with the website. It is a professionally made website and you can tell this is a serious website through the design. I like the way it scrolls through. Don’t really see much at all wrong with this. Overall, a great website.

Midterm Report

For the midterm report, the purpose is to show our progress and what we have learned so far through the course. I approached it by talking about every project that we have done so far. I included examples of them and described the designs, technologies, successes, failures, and feedback. Prezi was what I used to make my midterm report. It was my first time using it. I liked the diversity in it and all the different things you could do in it. It does take longer than a power point or a presentation similar to that, but it looks sharper I think. I hope the reader will be able to see what I have learned throughout the course as well as my progress that I have made.  They should be able to see from my output products that I made positive progress every time.
