I think the biggest aspect of a “good” website is its cleanliness and how easy it is to navigate. I think this is even more important that the content the website contains. You can have the absolute best content possible on your website, but it is too cluttered, too hard to find that information, etc., your viewer will never see it. In putting out website together, given that we are confident in the content we have and can still get, I think our biggest focus should be making it clean and easy to navigate. I also think it will be essential that we make it mobile compatible. Speaking from my own personal experience, I probably do more web surfing on a phone/tablet than my laptop, and websites that aren’t compatible are very hard to view, and makes the experience much worse.
This week, we had our first weekly check in, and spent some time on Zoom after the check into to talk as a team and discuss where we are/what we need to do. We have a solid plan going forward, and thanks to our reactiveness early in the semester, have enough content collected that we can still salvage our original project idea.
