Report: Creating My Website

Choice of Topic

I chose to create a website for Apple because I am familiar with their products. I got most of my information from background knowledge of the company. I also believe that they are widely known so the audience would recognize the subject.

Choice of Software Application

I used Dreamweaver MX to create my website. This application is recognised as a good package for website design and is widely available for home and commercial use. It is easy to use for both home consumers and business users, and it enables the user to include advanced features such as navigation flash buttons, rollover images and form text which are all essential for website production. I have at least one of all of these on my website for presentational purposes.

Methods Used to Create Each Slide 

First of all I set up a new folder in my user area and created 6 new .htm files. All of the websites are in the standard format, .htm. The title for the home page is Apple and for sub-pages I have used appropriate titles for each website, instead of page1and page2. I also created a folder where I could save all the images to be used on my site, so they could easily be navigated to and kept. Here is a screenshot of my folders to make it easier to visualize:

Here's what a star student thought of this essay

I would re-phrase one sentence, as the report states 'I used Dreamweaver MX to create my website. This application is recognised as a good package for website design'. I would re-place the word 'good' to 'professorial', as the majority of website design companies will use this software for their clients. This would show that the student would have an in-depth understanding of how website design companies work and which software packages they will use.

The report states how the student is going to create a website with using Apple products. The report goes further and explains how the information will be from the student's background knowledge already. This is quite good, however for high marks, the report should state why the website wouldn't be able to use information off the internet without permission. As this is due to that there's a number of copyright laws, which prevent website owner's from copying and simply pasting information onto websites and earning revenue based on other people's work. By writing something similar his would show the examiner that the student understands all the implications of setting up the website.

In summary, the report shows the examiner a basic understanding of how the set-up a website. However the report doesn't fully explain how the student has created the website on some aspects, and the report would need to be altered with additional detail to gain high marks.The report contains a number of screen shots, which help the reader to view what the student is discussing. This is quite helpful, as this allows the examiner to follow the writing with the aim of screen shots. The report lists a number of different aspects that the student has implemented into their website. This is lacking a little detail and could be improved by stating what the student is undertaking./ For example the student could state something on the lines of 'I've made an animation using Flash, and for this to work on the internet web page I would need to undertake the following steps'. The student could then list the different steps to undertake to make the feature work on the website. The above, is applicable to all the other sub-sections which are similar.
