WEBSITE DESIGN PROBLEM

MYP Design is an ongoing subject in Middle School. It will be facilitated by a number

of teachers from different disciplines. Each semester of the subject applies the
Design Cycle with increasing complexity.
The idea is, that creating and storing all of the work completed in a specifically
designed website will allow students to reference previous work and build on their
documented skills and knowledge.
It is felt that this way of documenting and storing students work will also provide an
easy reference for teachers and enable them to provide immediate feedback to
students. The creation of a website or e-portfolio is believed to be an effective way
of tracking students progress in this subject over many years.
It can assist students to keep their work more organised, reducing the inevitable loss of
paper work, and enable their learning to become more visible. This method of data
storage will also decrease the drain on the environment by using less paper.

Now use the design problem provided above, as well as the class notes provided, to
write your design brief for your website.
WEBSITE DESIGN BRIEF
I am going to design and make a website that will be used to document my work for
Design I.T during year 8-10. It will be made on my laptop through a website known as
weebly.com. This e-portfolio will be used by me and my other Design teachers in the
future to view my work. It will have a simplistic yet affective design to make t easy to
navigate around for both my teachers and I. It will contain a comment section to
enable my teachers to generate feedback for my work.
