Website Planning
Color Schemes -
Even though plans usually change, it's very important to begin each site with a plan, or layout. To begin with, you'll want to decide on a color scheme. I recommend the site ColourLovers to get ideas for your site. You can also get ideas from other websites.
Creating a Layout -
Before students can begin designing their CSS layouts, they are required to create a basic mockup or drawing showing the layout of their site, just to act as a guide. In addition, they must organize the information that will appear on their site. In doing this, students will plan the necessary pages and navigation scheme for their site. Shown below are samples of a planning worksheet as well as a completed sample.
