Well, one thing I've definitely learned from this module is that I don't want to be a web designer. I was happier before I had any understanding of the language of the internet and HTML was just a mistake incurred when I occasionally clicked in the wrong spot on a page and the page was replaced with reams of nonsensical code involving lots of pointy brackets.
And as for CSS or cascading style sheets as I now know them... more complicated code telling the HTML how to look, where to be, what colour to be and generally how to look pretty, this time in curly brackets with a whole new set of rules. It all adds up to a bit of a brain-ache for me, but slowly I'm starting to understand a bit of the 'behind the scenes' stuff of web pages.
I've chosen to make my website on the new TV studio at Coleg Harlech. It is an exciting project and I would like to get involved and use the facility for filming and editing stuff for broadcasting. I've looked at other local TV stations' websites and assessed what I like and am not so keen on. I've roughly sketched out how I'd like the site, which will contain 5 pages, to look. I've devised a questionnaire which I've handed out to Chris Headleand and Ian McNeil, and from their replies I'll write the brief.
Luckily we've got til the end of term to complete this, so hopefully it will become clearer to me as we carry on.
