LESSON OUTCOME:
The lesson will introduce students into the formalities involved in designing a web page. In
particular how to navigate. Students will be asked their desired content. Then students will be
asked to design a site map on paper that symbolises their design (roughly). This has to include
a section on User experience, who, what , when , where, why and how this webpage is being
used. This process will get the students thinking of the multi-faceted approach to web design
that is not just coding but also designing friendly environments for interaction.
planning, selecting, recording and applying appropriate skills and techniques, and critical and
operational abilities, including those required for digital and electronic technologies, according to
project needs. Students compare these to community and industry practice [In] [T] [KC1] [KC2

They record and communicate this thinking and their
design proposals using a wide range of
communication techniques (eg oral, performance,

[KC7]
They may value opportunities to learn from and work
with skilled designers and craftspersons in their
communities, using the Internet and e-mail. They
learn that there are myriad ways of designing, and
that there is no universal system or process to be
used. As designers, students combine their many
