Website Design and Development Assignment 

For this assignment, you will work with a team to develop a website. Your team will need to conduct some research to find the information for the topic. The goal is to present the information (website) in such a way that customers can use your website effectively. In addition, you will submit a brief individual report about this assignment. 

Teams: 

You will be expected to choose your own teams for this project. Teams may consist of three or four students. Your team needs to choose a team name and contact person. Students who are not in a group must contact the lecturer. 

The Website: 

Good web design suggests that dividing material into bite-sized pieces relating to a portion of the overall topic. 

Good practice of web design is expected – e.g. appropriate navigation, a good writing style for the web, well-thought out design to make material easily read on screen, and appropriate fonts and colors. The home page should be index.html. 

One of the pages (references.html) should contain accurate and detailed information about the sources of information (contents and images) used in the web pages. It is expected that the references be accurate and complete and follow an appropriate format. 

Your website project must follow the hierarchical structure and file naming conventions given below. Your marks will be deducted if you don’t follow this structure in your project. 

The Group Report: 

Write a three page paper describing the process of creating your website, working with your client and learning the technical skills necessary to do so. Discuss the things that went well on the site, the things that you found difficult, things you would change if you could do it again and what your group did on the project and how each of the group member personally contributed to the project. 

Remember, unlike some of the other papers we have done in class, this is an actual essay, not a rough designs or notes. Pay attention to grammar and spelling. 

Make sure the name of your group and a listing of the members of your group are clearly identified on the first page of this document. 

Word limit: equivalent to 1200 words 

Plagiarism and Collusion of Material: 

One of the most common reasons for programming plagiarism is leaving work until the last minute. Avoid this by making sure that you know what you have to do (not necessarily how to do it) as soon as an assessment is set. Then decide what you will need to do in order to complete the assignment. Since the web pages are submitted as a group, ensure that all members of your group follow strict guidelines to avoid plagiarism. 

Requirements: 

▪  Website should have 15 (references page included)pages. 

▪  Each of those pages should use same or similar style, so that the pages look like they belong to the same website. 

Validate your Webpage: 

§ Each HTML page and CSS should pass the W3C validation. 

§ Validate the webpage using the W3C validator. All errors must be eliminated before assignment is submitted. 

§ Include the validation icon on your valid page *inside* your closing body tag at the base of your page/web site. 

Navigation: 

§ Each page should have a meaningful title (using the same title for all the pages is not considered meaningful). 

§ You should have a consistent navigation, for example if you have a menu which links to different pages, the menu should appear in the same place in all pages, so that users can easily find the menu and able to navigate to different pages. 

Design: 

▪  Website demonstrates accepted graphic design principles (repeated elements throughout, contrast, proximity, and alignment as well as uncluttered space and subdued backgrounds). 

▪ Website uses coordination of colors which do not hamper usage; this includes text contrasting well with background 

▪  Consistent design throughout the website 

▪  You should use one external stylesheet, and optionally internal stylesheets in different pages. The stylesheet should contain only the rules which are common more than 2 pages or all the pages. The internal stylesheet should contain rules which are used only in one particular page. 

▪  You should organize all the pages in a good structure. 

▪  You should layout your web pages using one of the layout techniques. You should use <div> to layout your pages, using <table> for laying out is not allowed. 

▪  Your pages should be easy to read, easy to navigate. The text, border, background etc. should be contrasting, and don't use too many different colors.
