- 26. QUICK HTML INTRODUCTION • THESE NEXT FEW SLIDES ARE JUST THE BRIEFEST INTRODUCTION INTENDED TO SET YOU ON YOUR WAY TO THIS WEEK’S HOMEWORK • I DO NOT EXPECT ANY PRETTY FORMATTING AT THIS TIME • A FUNCTIONAL WEB PAGE THAT CAN APPEAR IN THE BROWSER IS ALL I’M LOOKING FOR • FEEL FREE TO USE ONLINE TOOLS LIKE HTTPS://HTML-ONLINE.COM/ TO MAKE YOUR JOB EASIER IF YOU WANT, BUT A SIMPLE EDITOR (LIKE VS CODE WHICH WE INSTALLED LAST WEEK) IS ALL YOU NEED
- 27. A BASIC HTML PAGE
- 28. WHAT HTML IS AND ISN’T • HTML IS A FORMATTING LANGUAGE • HTML IS A LINKING LANGUAGE (HYPERTEXT MARKUP LANGUAGE) • HTML IS NOT A PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE • HTML IS NOT A GRAPHICAL DISPLAY LANGUAGE WITHOUT OTHER EXTENSIONS • HTML IS NOT A SEMANTIC MARKUP LANGUAGE, EXCEPT IN THE MOST RUDIMENTARY OF WAYS
- 29. TAGS • THINGS THAT ARE ENCLOSED IN ANGLE BRACKETS <> • GENERALLY HAVE AN OPENING TAG <SOMETAG> AND A CLOSING TAG </SOMETAG> • SOMETIMES, CAN BE SELF-CLOSING <BR/> • NESTING IS IMPORTANT
- 30. STRUCTURE OF AN HTML PAGE • <HTML> • <HEAD> • </HEAD> • <BODY> • CONTENT • </BODY> • </HTML> • SAVE THAT AS A .HTML FILE AND YOU’RE DONE! (WELL, THERE’S MUCH MORE BUT DONE FOR TODAY )
- 31. PROJECT 1 • If you choose one of the CanAssist topics: • You’ll need to sign an IP agreement so that they can use it • You’ll form a group with those others that are interested in that topic, or if larger than 3-4 people break into smaller groups. More than one group on the same topic is fine since you’ll come up with different designs. • Presentation on Jan 25th will be graded (out of 15) as • 3 points for analysis of users and showing fit to the proposal requirements (does it match the requirements?) • 5 points for presentation of compelling user stories (will people want to use it?) • 5 points for website design and usability (will they be able to use it?) • 2 points for presenting a scoped-down subset of the full design that is achievable for projects 2 and 3 (will you be able to build it?)
- 32. PROJECT 1 • If you choose a project of your own rather than a CanAssist project • No IP agreement, obviously. The work is yours, but do be aware of disclosure. • Groups should be 3-4 people. 2 in a pinch, 5 if necessary. No 1 person projects will be allowed. • Grading (out of 15) for the Jan 25th presentation: • 3 points for a compelling idea, supported by market analysis (will it be viable?) • 5 points for compelling user stories (will people want to use it?) • 5 points for website design and usability (will they be able to use it?) • 2 points for a scoped-down subset for projects 2 and 3 (will you be able to build it?)
- 33. PROJECT DELIVERABLES • A BUSINESS MODEL CANVAS OR A MISSION MODEL CANVAS • AT LEAST 2-3 WELL CRAFTED PERSONAS • A WEBSITE DESIGN – THIS CAN BE CRAFTED USING PHOTOSHOP, USING PROTOTYPING TOOLS SUCH AS BALSAMIQ, INVISIONAPP.COM, OR HTTP://PENCIL.EVOLUS.VN/ • THE MAIN THING FOR THIS ROUND IS THE FLOW AND CONCEPTUAL DESIGN. IF YOU WANT TO DRAW ON PAPER AND THEN SCAN THAT IN FOR YOUR PRESENTATION THAT IS FINE TOO. • A PRESENTATION – POWERPOINT OR WHATEVER FORM YOU LIKE, BUT PLEASE HAVE YOUR MATERIALS IN SOMETHING THAT CAN BE SHOWN IN A PRESENTATION TO THE CLASS ON THE 25TH. AIM FOR A 5-7 MINUTE PRESENTATION, BUT THIS IS JUST A GUIDELINE. • MAKE SURE YOU IDENTIFY THOSE PIECES THAT YOU WANT TO BUILD OUT FIRST!
- 34. GROUP WORK • GOAL NUMBER 1: GET INTO A GROUP! • GOAL NUMBER 2: GET FIGURED WHEN YOU ARE GOING TO WORK ON THIS. EXPECT TO TAKE AT LEAST 3-4 HOURS ON IT. • GOAL NUMBER 3: START WORKING ON THE BUSINESS MODEL CANVAS FOR YOUR WEBSITE PROJECT
- 35. HOMEWORK #3 • DUE WED JAN 25TH AT THE START OF CLASS • PLEASE EMAIL TO DEREKJA@GMAIL.COM • YOU HAVE A WEB BUSINESS SELLING STAR WARS TOYS, YOU GET THEM FROM A SUPPLIER AND THEY AREN’T QUITE APPROVED TOYS SO THEY CAN’T BE CALLED STAR WARS, BUT THEY ARE PLAINLY DRAWN FROM THE SAME UNIVERSE. THEY SEEM TO APPEAL MOST TO PRE-TEEN BOYS, BUT YOU HAVE A SIGNIFICANT SECONDARY FOLLOWING AMONG GAMERS OF ALL GENDERS SINCE THE CHARACTERS HAVE FOUND THEIR WAY INTO AN ONLINE ROLE PLAYING GAME. • 1 DESIGN A WEB MARKETING PLAN FOR THESE TOYS, YOU HAVE $1000 A MONTH TO SPEND. WHAT KEYWORDS DO YOU BUY? HOW ELSE DO YOU SPEND YOUR MONEY? • 2 SKETCH OUT A BUSINESS MODEL CANVAS OUTLINING THE FUNDAMENTALS OF THIS BUSINESS • FORMAT YOUR ANSWER AS AN HTML PAGE AND PUSH IT UP TO YOUR GITHUB REPOSITORY. YOU CAN USE AN ONLINE HTML EDITOR LIKE HTTPS://HTML-ONLINE.COM/ TO HELP WITH THE TAGS AND FORMATTING.
