We are the first group present our prototype.. DR J was comment, we just make it only 10%.. so sad.. I think that is already 40%.. it’s ok, need more effort to make our web success.. GO GO LADY BOSS..!!

• What colours will look good together on your site?
• What fonts or styles you will use for the written part of your web pages?
• What graphics and multimedia effects are needed?
• How will all of these elements be combined or arrange into an attractive layout?

What do you think..?? Is it good colors choice, balance layout & use of images?

The general issue in visual design:

• Choose a visual theme –connected to your content.
• Use template concepts– consistent.
• Use table or division (div) or frame for layout/arranging your visual elements.
• Typography - keep it simple

~Good flow~

Thumbnails Sketches -> Rough Sketches -> Prototype

Next week is prototype presentation.. so, are you ready for presentation..?? GOOD LUCK TO MY ENTIRE FRIEND..!!

After finish the presentation about information design, we continue to next step of web design.. that is interaction design..

In part 1 (Information Design), it focused on planning the design and think what is this product?

For part 2 (Interaction Design), it focuses on the mechanics of the design and we need to think how should it work?

What is Interaction Design? Interaction design means turning information into an experience.

This means:

• Motivating users to have the experience, by giving them clear guidance and options.
• Creating an interesting journey, or clear path, through the information.
• Giving users controls that allow them to go where they want and do what they want.
• Making the experience as easy and intuitive as possible.

What are the basic elements in Interaction Design? Three essential elements:

• Organization – How the information will be organized on the pages ?
• Navigation – How people will find their way around your web site ?
• Interactivity – What controls you give your users to work with ?

You want to know more about interaction design..?? just follow me..

Kak Puteri, our project manager was presenting our information design.. GOOD JOB..!! but we need to modify the problem of the situation..

*********************************************************

Last week, we need to vote the simple question..

Good design documents contain at least three kinds of information :

• Information Design
• Interaction Design
• Visual Design

I vote information design is most important part in web design because without the good information, web site will useless.. but interaction design and visual design still important for attract the user..

As we can see the figure on week 4, information design is the first part in web design. Aside from people, information is the single most valuable asset for education. At every level, in every department, for every unit, information is critical. The better the information, the more successful the department and the people (students) within it can be. Information Design is dedicated to making information as effective as possible.

There are five things to think about in the process of Information Design:

• Message: What information do you wish to share?
• Audience: Whom do you wish to share your message with?
• Purpose: How and why do you want to share your message with the audience?
• Background: What does your intended audience already know about the subject you are discussing?
• Structure: How can your message are organized most effectively?

So, what we need to consider for make sure our information design is good..?

• Learning Theories
• Learning/Teaching Strategies
• Learning Styles

What are learning theory, learning/teaching strategy and learning style for our group..?? wait and see on next week.. who not attend the class, you will miss something important.. hehe~

Who know what is web design?? the purpose of Web Design is to inform or to persuade users. This is accomplished by delivering content and presenting the content in a way that benefits the user..

If you are one of the observer, what are the most important to observe when designing a web site? Why ? By examining a variety of web sites, you will learn to focus on both user’s needs & the information requirements of the content you want to deliver..

Compare the website.. which one do you like..??

In truth, almost every website has one flaw or another..

• It be confusing accessibility
• Over-ambitious design
• Poor download time

I make sure, if you follow the parts of web design, your web will well structured, easy to navigate, quick download time etc.. believe it or not..?? just try it..!!

*********************************************************

After finish discussion about basic concepts of web page, we are continue the next topic, TYPE OF WEBSITE.. why users tend to view web site? maybe users tend to view the function of the site or by its visual appearance..

Let’s see 5 function grouping of website that we can learn such as Informational sites, Transactional sites, Community sites, Entertainment sites and Other sites.

What are different between all of the function groupings..??

We might also categorize sites based upon the organization that is running. For examples: Commercial, Government, Educational, Charitable and Personal.

Anything else about type of website..?? don’t forget about Visual Groupings.. 4 types of visual groupings such as Text oriented, GUI Style, Metaphorical, Experimental.. which one are attractive..?? depend on individual..
