Create an introductory UNIX tutorial website. All materials for this individual site must be written by you in your own words. You may not use anything from anywhere else at all. All graphics and visual images for this site must have been created by you. You may not use anything from anywhere else at all. In other words, this is a website that you make ... all by yourself. Did I remember to mention that you must make everything for this project?
The website should include at least 20 separate pages linked (that's 20 separate .html files, or the equivalent with permission of the instructor). You will be graded on your:
The design of the Web "site" for this class has not been reworked for several years, and could be better. The task for your teams is to design (and then implement for the final group project) a new site for this class, and one which works equally well on "big screen" and mobile devices.
The WebMonkey Online Specifications should be used for the design document. The design document should be completely online, and should not just say what you want to do. The design document should also clearly show why you have chosen whatever approach and content and etc which you choose to use.
You may choose to use either XHTML (Strict) or HTML5, but you need to say why you chose one over the other.
Your group will create a Site Design Document with page mock-ups using the WebMonkey Online Specifications. Note that there are 5 lessons on the site each one dealing with multiple sections of the document. Your group needs to create a document that explicitly deals with each and every lesson.
Developing and presenting this sort of document is not a trivial task, and this sort of work makes a lot of consulting firms a lot of money. Web-aware companies know having a good design document will save them money and heartache in actually getting a website up and running smoothly.
Due Wednesday of week 6, not later than 2400 hours (20 percent).

Using a few of the technologies we've covered in the second half of the course (javascript, dhtml, PHP, etc.), re-create and redesign your original individual midterm Web site. Demonstrate your increased skills in more than one area covered in the second half of the course (javascript, dhtml, PHP, etc.). You may need to expand the content of the Web site. Include as a part of your project a separate linked page documenting what you have done in each area. The idea is to demonstrate you have learned something in the second half of this term about how to build Web sites and pages. The resulting project should be quite a bit different from or very much refined from your individual midterm Web site.
