Explain the Problem

some people have never made a website in their whole life. Some people can make a website but fail or do not try to make one we might make the wrong thing and not a website that we want to make.
Research and Analysis

Design Brief I are going to design a website that will answer the unit question. I will answer the unit question how have a students IT needs changed by re-searching and finding all the information, I need and putting it in the website I will make.

Product Specification My product must:+ Test Plan For my website I will answer the unit question and how devices have helped us today etc.... I will make the right theme color so that the viewers for my website are able to see the information that I have written in the website. I will try and make a good website by: looking for information about storage devices I will also see if people can understand my information if it makes sense or if it doesn't make any sense at all. I will also check from my friends or family if my information is correct or if I made some mistakes. DESIGN  Pictures of my designs
 * 1) Design a 5 page website. Before you start designing make sure you run it by the teacher first.
 * 2) 1 page must be about how students today are using different types of storage devices
 * 3) 1 page must be about online storage
 * 4) 1 page must be about how mouses have changed
 * 5) 1 page must be about how keyboards have and will change
 * 6) 1 page must be about how output devices have changed
 * 7) 1 page can be on whatever you want but it must related to the unit question
 * 8) Show how the web page will look. change around the navigational bar, the location of your picture, add more pictures to each page, move the information around to show different designs. Remember two designs are better than one. Three designs are better than two. Make sure you think about navigation and the content of each page in your design. For content a heading will be enough. Remember to look at the design criteria in order to get maximum marks.
 * re-searching about the topic I am doing and making sure I am in a good website with the correct information

Analysis of my designs Design #1: for my first design I will show all the design specifications in my web page if I am to choose design number 1. The way the design is drawn is kind of hard because of the half circle and the pages of contents. The links that I am making is quite hard because to go to the other page, you have to make the words go around the half circle. I don't think I will use design #1 because it is quite hard to draw and will take a long time to do. Justification for chosen design I have chosen design 2 I chose design 2 from all the others because i'ts not to hard to do and not too easy so it's in the middle. In design 2 I can store all my information in it and also people can understand what I wrote. PLAN about what I am going to do. ||
 * due date || Criteria || Name ||= Resources ||= done ||= comments ||= Procedure ||
 * =  || C ||= Plan ||= Computer || yes ||=   ||= First I will go to my wiki and then go to plan I will then make a table like the one here, and write
 * = 08/03/2013 ||= D ||= Create ||= Computer, Flash drive ||= yes ||= I finished my create for my website on time ||= For my create I will open Microsoft expression and start to make my 6 webpages website. I will put all the Information I need to put In my website including my table of contents and pictures and URL of websites that can also be useful. ||
 * = 15/03/2013 ||= E ||= Evaluate ||= computer ||=  ||=   ||= For my evaluate I will evaluate the unit and what we did. I will state what we did wrong and what I would change if I was to do the unit again. ||

To make my website the way I planned I am going to read all my design specifications and see if I have done the right thing and if I have to change what I have written before the deadline comes. For my plan I will put up times to help me finish my website in an appropriate manner. From the 23rd until the 28th i will start to plan my website seeing If I need a color scheme or if I have all I need. I will also put some information in about 2 or 3 pages of the website. From the first till the 8th I will start my create Putting information in the info pages. I will also see if my menu button works. I will put pictures into my website, but the pictures have to be according to the topic. I will make sure all my hyperlinks are working and going to the next page. CREATE  Final Product  This is my final product for my create:



Changes made to the original Design The changes I made to the original design was I didn't really concentrate on my design and added information I found online. I also changed the time I did my create. I finished it a bit late but I made my website. I normally wouldn't find the right answer or picture for my website and put one or two. My design said I should put two or three. It was easy putting the links into to go to the next page and it was also useful.

Changes made to the original Plan  For my my changes I did not follow my dates and did my create a bit late.I was supposed to use lots of devices like a USB but I didn't I only used a computer and things that need to be used in a computer.I didn't do a bad job following my plan because it was quite easy and straight forwards.

EVALUATE  Results of tests  My results didn't go really well because some of my plans didn't go really well and according to the time I wanted it to be finished. I think next time for my tests I think I could have done better in my tests by seeing if every thing I need was OK and I didn't have to do the tests before organizing it properly so that the tests suite the design specifications.

Recommendations for improvement I would Improve my product by putting more information on my website and being more organized of what i am going to do. I would finish my product on time and always try and do it at break times and seeing how I can improve in it before the deadline.I think if I was to do it next time I would start ahead so that I finish early and don't have to be in a rush because the deadline is close.

Self-evaluation of your execution of the design cycle  I changed the way I made my design I did it with time management cause the design needed allot of time to make my design the same has I wrote it to be in the design cycle. I don't think i used time management properly because in so me cases I was late to finish something but I think I did it. I followed some of my design cycle apart from the create because I did it in a hurry which made it have less information. The thing I think I did best of all is my Plan because I tried to put in ideas and did as much as I could to plan my time management and how I am going to finish my things on time. I wouldn't give my self allot of high scores and also not low scores.
