Learner goals and capabilities

Students will design a website for a company. The following information will be included in the website:

  • company updates/events
  • about the company
  • how to contact the company
  • a multi-product or multi-service listing
  • one product or service detailed view
  • appropriate means for the user to provide feedback on a product or service

The list above is not a list of 'pages' required. It provides an overview of the content required in this project. This content will be integrated as appropriate for the product or service that company offers. Having a user be able to provide feedback will look very different for a specific product as opposed to a service.

Students will work on weekly deliverables, to to checked each week in class.

The project will end on November 5, 2020.
