This past weekend our overall assignment was to complete the sitemap for Apalachee Ridge Learning Center.  Using Micrcosoft Visio, we created a blueprint style of layout showing the functionality of how our website will work.  We also divided up making corrections to our Client and Audience Analysis to improve the grade we initially recieved for the assignment.  Everyone, as a group, added some primary objectives for the site, explained the technicalities of who and how the site will be maintained, and changed the benchmarking example to relate more to the structure of the Center.  The goal of the changes was to show a better consistency within the report, which was the main issue we needed to address.  Also, the readings and the RAQ for the weekend were extended to Thursday due to Blackboard issues. 

On Tuesday October 21:

We discussed more in depth about Wireframes, going over a few examples, discussing a few things that should be included in wireframes, the different types of wireframes (i.e. Annoted, Low-Fidelity, and High-Fidelity), as well as some guidlines and tools.  We also took some group work time to work on making corrections on the Client and Audience Analysis.

On Thursday October 23:

We discussed the pros and cons of website navigation.  We went through some example websites trying to spot different problamatic issues with signs and websites, etc.  We spent the remainder of class discussing the wireframe assignment regarding who is gonna do which page.
