Blog Monday: Why?

Looking for Colleges and degrees can a complicate task. And most of the times, researching about these topics is something that is time consuming. The time used looking personal and non-personal information may distract one when websites fulfill the minimum requirements. For most part, navigators like to be entertained and to find websites with vivid backgrounds, colors, fonts, themes, etc. The importance of having an outstanding developing college websites allows internal and external students and clients to navigate easily through it. In fact, the projection of these websites allows students and clients to be more involve in internal an external activities. Not only is important to show presentable themes and external graphic designs, but also to set up each link in a functional way.

The topic was chosen because allows students or clients to compare College web designs. It points out the aspects of creativity and design combined with digital technology techniques. In addition, this topic presents a proposal how colleges website can be upgrade in order to fulfill the students and customers needs.

  1. I like the meta-topic -- not just explaining effective visual designs, but trying to get specific designers to take your advice for better responses from their audiences.

    You do mention students/prospective students as a stakeholder here. I'm wondering if this project might also include some sort of genre analysis of a series of college websites to help others navigate the (often) labyrinth-like linkpaths to find stuff like admission and program requirements, mid-career assessments, financial options and the like. There's definitely a logic to it, but the design is typically done by people who already know how they'd find information without much thought to how a novice would try to search it out. (Fun story: I did a project for a department in UColl over the summer, and I needed to have a list of every major offered by every college. That information was basically impossible to find.)
