NASA Space Explorations
-Why would anyone be interested in viewing the Web site that your team is developing?
They should be interested because the website is educational and informative.
-Who are the possible customers for the site?
Anyone who surfs the web for NASA, anyone really. Well, that would be anyone that has money and would like to support NASA or become a member.
-How many pages are going to be necessary to complete the Web site your client wants?
It depends on the mission but I think we should at least have 5 pages
-Based on the number of pages, what sort of navigational structure would work well for the site?
Something very easy t find and read, maybe on the top or like a drop down menu. We just need to make the navigation bar very noticeable.
-How can this design be shown using a site map and storyboard?
I am not sure, the site map allows you to organize your links and your web site. It would help to have a site map because it obviously makes navigation way more easier.
Mission that you are working on: Mission 1

If you click on the Split tab at the bottom of the Expression workspace window, what do you see?
-The workspace will divide so that you can see the code and the actual screen and what you ar working with (how it will look).
How could this be helpful in designing a web site?
-It makes it easier to click on certain items and seeign the code makes it easier to select it. Plus if you select a picture you can make sure you are ONLY selecting that by viewing the code.
What site was referenced to "Learn More About HTML"?What version of HTML does it explain?Do you think that this information is valid today? Why or why not?

Hocus-Focus
1. Hat is backwards
2.Plant is missing
3. Not carrying anything in hand
4. Light is missing outside
5.The woman's sleeves are different at the bottom
6. Woman's collar is bigger
I'm not exactly sure how this activity can help me in HTML programming, but I guess it could be because you have to be aware of EVERY single detail. In HTML you cant make a mistake because then everything is messed up.
I discovered six differences in total.
I had all te differences, except for one, that had to be pointed put to me. It was the collar size, obviously, once pointed out, I saw it.
To be a better writer you have to make sure of details, everythign has to be in the correct place.
1. Hat pointy thing is facing a different direction
2. Dog is further away from person
3. The fire hydrant thing is a different color
4. Tree has a poster
5. Shirt is patterned differently
6. Car has an antenna
This activity helps you be careful, and it helps you to be aware of little details. An HTML programmer has to be aware of these little details, because on error can cause the web page to not work.
I discovered six differences. Since I discovered them by myself, they didn;t need to be pointed out to me.:)
