Revised Syllabus

Given our remaining days, I've decided to take the Flash exercise out of the syllabus. This was an outlier exercise to begin with and not part of the web process that we've been learning over the last several weeks.

Here's a revised schedule starting today all the way up to our last class on Thursday:

Week 5, (W) 06/19/13

Lecture-Starting your home page concepts

Sixth assignment given (2 parts):

1. Integrate and utilize all the materials (tools)

2. Pick one of your final home page designs and develop a simple 2

page style guide detailing typefaces, colors, links and other vital

information for a smooth handoff. Due on 6/27/13.
