Check this out:

Click to enlarge the IDCC 380 schematic for the final assignment.Here are the final assignment deliverables:

  1. Exercise 14: High Fidelity Prototype: Infinite Menu on an E-commerce Site (see handout for specific requirements).
  2. Exercises 15-17: XML Slideshow in Flash Using Flash Slideshow Maker Professional (3 separate web pages plus one gateway page; see handout for specific requirements).
  3. Exercise 18: Creating Your Site Blog (see handout for specific requirements).
  4. Exercise 18: RSS Feed Tags (see handout for specific requirements).
  5. IDCC 380 Site for Final Assignment (see handout (graphic above right) and Web page Assignment 3 for specific requirements).
Be sure to check all handouts for the various specific requirements. Note too that you are to hand in your Assignment 1 and Assignment 2 corrected papers (with my annotations on them). Print only the new pages, rendered and xhtml.

Note: your 380 site must demonstrate "excellence in design, functionality, and mastery of principles and practice." Remember, then, as I've often said in class, the 380 class site and the dream site must have a uniform look and feel. They can have two different designs, of course, but within each site you will have a uniform template driving all the top-tier pages. In the 380 class site, exercises area, all exercises will look quite different, however, as they were experimental in nature.

To recap: your 380 home page, about page, dream site discussion gateway and sub pages, dream site prototype gateway page, exercises gateway page, and 380 site map page will all have a uniform look and feel (design, layout, color palette, navigation scheme, footer, et al). Your dream site itself is a subsite with its own design, layout, color palette, navigation scheme, footer, et al.

When your assignment is complete, deliver it to Gail Wessell in Smith 121, no later than 4:30 p.m., Tuesday, May 6. Be sure to sign the sheet provided.
