Website Review + Testing!

Aim: To complete a website for a defined purpose.

Objectives:
Create a website that uses CSS to control the layout of web pages.
Create interactive web pages with at least two scripts written or adapted by yourself.
Show good practice for the interactive aspects of the website.
Test the website.

It's Friday, Friday, gotta get down on college...

This morning we first had our Thursday Quiz that we missed yesterday. For now, we'll call it Friday Quiz! The video this time was about Website Design and Development Process by Webociti. It was very informative, but Brandon B made a hint that the questions would be more visual than factual based, therefore I focused a lot on its visual appearances and made notes. By the end of the quiz, I got 5/10, it was tough but once again I have made it into the safety margin (where I don't win or lose, simples).

Afterwards, we happily continued with our coursework. Today I aimed to get U20_A4T1 done and begin the resubmission for U20_A2. Since we have produced our websites, the fourth assignment was all about testing and reviewing it, along with improvements. I have spent the majority of the day working on U20_A4T1 whereas also helping other people here and there. As I have tested the layouts as well as my interactive elements, today I tested the webpage on different browser types. Throughout this, I have really understood that versions does not matter and whether it supports it or not, otherwise it'll break. I also made a table and did other minor tests throughout the page. At the end, Sami H helped give feedback to my site, which the improvement suggestions will be discussed and taken into account in U20_A4T2. Conversely, I also gave feedback but to Matthew T instead. And oh, it's his 18th birthday today!

At the end of the day, I spent time checking through my work as well as doing some resubmissions. In addition, as today is the beginning of the art class, I am extremely looking forward to it. I even have my tutor after, 2 hours of art, yas!

Reflecting throughout the day, I have been able to accomplish all of what I had planned - that is my strength. There were times when people had asked for help, but my lack of knowledge on certain areas such as coding really made me unreliable. Though it is understandable that my passion is elsewhere, I still wish to be knowledgeable. This unit is coming to an end, and I really enjoyed it and learnt a bit more than the usual. For improvement, I suppose I could attempt to work even harder.

My plans are to complete the last assignment and task over the weekend, or at least start it off and get to a good spot to stop. I'm also aiming to do lots of art and revision over the weekend on multiple subjects. So until then, peace!
