Project Raptor: Week 2

Part 1

I found a better webhosting site that was user friendly. Since I did not have any information at hand, I decided that I would first work on organizing the website as well as work on making it more presentable.

Part 2

Group conference day. The group had a brief meeting with Brenna on where we were on our project. We each presented our concerns and decided on the best ways to tackle them. Later I confirmed with the group on the idea of naming the website Project Raptor. We also decided on meeting up to shoot a video presentation on Project Raptor. The meeting was set to be on Wednesday the following week at the Wildlife Care Clinic.

Part 3

Taking the opportunity of the long weekend, I decided to spend time working on the website. Since I had more information at hand, it was much easier to start building it. I decided that the best way to present the website was to use other NGO websites as examples as to what should the website contain. I worked mostly on the layout so that it would be simple for visitors to navigate as well as it being representative to the cause we were working on.

Project Raptor: Week 1

Part 1

As we were missing two group members, the three of us couldn't make any final decision on a topic we could work on. However, we did consider one topic from the three that we had for the day. We then decided that we would leave the option open and make a majority decision on it. This is because, we wanted a topic that we could work closely with.

Part 2

We made a final decision on our topic, which we later named Project Raptor. Tasia wrote the final proposal on the topic, which we lated emailed out. During that group discussion, we browsed the library website for any research articles on the issue. We also looked on youtube to find any videos relating to the issue. Before, wrapping up the day's discussion, our group delegated tasks to each person and decided that everyone should have their part ready by Monday.

Part 3

I had quite a difficult time searching for good free webhostings. Since, this was my first time making a website, it required a lot of trial and error that came hand in hand with frustrations from non-user friendly webhosting sites. I settled on freewebhosting.com since I have heard about it from a friend before.
