Web Pathway: Web Design

This lecture was based around the text used in websites and which ones are the best for which type of site.

We were given three tasks to complete, these were:

1. Find a web 'magazine' that you find easy to navigate and read.

2. Find a website that uses more then two dimensions of information

3. Create a Mac/Aqua style button [Use this link]

Web Pathway: Web Applications

I think I missed this lecture also...hmm.

SPP2: ...

I missed this lecture, whoops...

SPP2: Tutorial

First Tutorial of the term and one simple [hopefully] task: to ask a series of questions to someone in your pathway [basically ask a web designer web design questions that you want to know the answers to!] and present in any way shape of form by next week [22/10]. I aim to contact Nottingham based Web and Graphic Design company Petrol Designs with a few questions.

Web Pathway: Interaction Design

Interaction Design, now that is something I didn't think would be much to do with Web Design, and more for the Interactives Pathway. Wrong! In this, the summary of the first lecture I realised how wide the world wide web really is, and what you can do with it. This just keeps me thinking about what I want to do as a career after university.

Web Pathway: Web Design

So, this been the first lecture/seminar to the Web Design area of the Web Pathway and well, just the basics, full of links, websites and information on CSS, Rules & Regs, and Flash sites. Oh the visual enjoyment! I'm all giddy with excitement [what's wrong with me?!]

Web Pathway: Introduction

When I first thought of choosing the Web Pathway last May I didn't assume there would be things that I wasn't so keen on, but after todays lecture they are quite a few areas which could confuse/bore/frustrate me, which is nice. But, I don't think that I would be interested if there weren't any challenges. And if that wasn't enough, Adrian is leaving. Rubbish!
If things weren't complicated enough with timetables not working etc, they are 3 different areas to the Web Pathway, even though this is simpler then them all been rolled into one I bet I'll forget which is which.
All in all, I think I've chosen the correct pathway, phew.

SPP2: Introduction

Does exactly what it says on the tin, an Introduction to the 2nd Year SPP module. This module will run throughout the year and will still have the same concept as last year; which was, in my opinion, to strengthen your knowledge on Multimedia. Should be fun, again.

MM2: Introduction

So this was a basic outline to the 2nd year as a whole, and I think it's fair for me to say it made me a little scared. I don't want to have to do 'real' work.

It also seems that the timetabling for this year looks, well, shall we say, messy? Day One and the VLP [yeah, no events list this year] already is incorrect, and we were given our first lecture manually, which happens to be first thing tomorrow, excellent. Now, thats why I need to get the internet, I'm thinking the new '3 Mobile Modem'. Hmmm....

Again, it begins...

Six months off really does something to you [or moreso me], in the sense that I cannot be bothered with 9am starts. Woo Hoo.

So there's an Introduction lecture to the 2nd year sometime soon, in some building, which sounds fun. Let's hope I figure out where it is in time. But first, let's get rid of the last few days of 'summer' [which for me, seems to be enclosed in the kitchen of my workplace for 12 hours a day, great].
