- Week One: Introduction
- Welcome to the Web Design for Everyone Capstone!!! It really is my intention to make sure that everyone who completes this capstone will have a product they are proud of. The challenge is that "everyone" is actually a very diverse group of people, each person coming in with different skill sets and interests. So in this course you will pick from one of three portfolio options to complete. The goal of this approach is to help students self-select into appropriate peer groups.
- Week Two: Design Phase
- Students will submit wireframes for a multi-part online portfolio. The topic of your site is your choice, but you will be expected to fulfill a small checklist of requirements with respect to the amount of proposed content and the variety of HTML5 tags. Emphasis will be on ability to demonstrate mobile-first paradigm design.
- Week Two: Design Phase: Lesson Choices
- Week Three: Review and Preparation Phase
- This week you will continue to review your fellow students designs. Feedback will be based on layout, proposed content, and accessibility. The goal is that these peer reviews will inspire you to attempt something more on your site (or provide the feedback that lets you know you may want to scale down your own expectations.) You will begin to create the content of your site as you wait for the reviews of your project to be created.
- Week Four: Coding Phase
- Using the feedback you received from other capstone participants you will begin to style your portfolio. At the end of Week Five you will have the opportunity to submit your intermediate work for review.
- Week Five: Validation and Review Phase
- This week you will validate and test your site. You will write a summary of the results and explain (if necessary) why you needed to violate any coding conventions.
- Week Six: Revise and Submit Phase
- We will conclude with a period of peer-review and modifications to your site. By the end of this week you will have a unique, responsive, accessible portfolio. Congratulations!!
