Workshop Description

The focus of this workshop will be creating a Web page and all the documents necessary for a personal Web site. Design rather than technology will be emphasized. We will explore and evaluate other Web sites and research online sites to assist in the construction of a quality site. We will use FrontPage to help facilitate this task, although the skills you develop should be transferable to other programs. This workshop is basic and foundational. It is not intermediate or advanced. It will be more opportunity driven than academic.

Objectives

·  Evaluate current Web sites for design, appearance, and ease of navigation.
