Overview: Learning Team Instructions Website Evaluation Paper and Prototype for Redesign

 

 

Learning Teams will be assigned or select a Virtual Organization website to redesign. Teams will evaluate the use of design principles within the site. They will also propose recommendations for improvements to the site and use a web design tool, such as Adobe^®Dreamweaver^®, to develop a visual mockup. Each Learning Team must submit a 10- to 12-page written evaluation of the existing website, including recommendations for improvement and a prototype of proposed changes due in Week Five. The requirements for this project are covered in the following weeks.
