Thursday - Website started!

We started off today with the quiz made by Ashley. This was another general knowledge quiz and this time it was about HTML. I have not done a lot of HTML so I was not sure on most of the questions. In the end I managed to get 4 1/2 but Gabe got 2 so he is doing it next week. Hardly any people got a high score so 4 1/2 was quite good.

After that I started to work on assignment three task two. I only had a little bit left to do so I was aiming to finish it just before lunch. In the end I managed to finish it before lunch so I could start to work on my website. I was aiming to plan out the website today and understand HTML more.

Finally I worked on my website. I decided to design my background first as I wanted to see how the text looked with the background. I selected a blue background with a gradient and I think it looks pretty good. It works well with the orange text I selected as well. I also created some 3D text for the header I am pleased with that.

Tuesday - Assignment three

Today's main aim was to work on assignment three task two. I managed to get most of it done however I still have a bit left to do. Task two has different terms we have to explain about. I decided to try and get most of it done for today.

We were also learning about the distinction task today. This has more explanations however I am not aiming to go for the distinction for this unit. I am aiming for merit on the last two units for  MM over all. I will be aiming to finish assignment three either tomorrow or at the start of Thursday.

For the end of the day I did submissions for the units. I have submitted the games unit and I only have the 2D animation left to submit. As I got the email back today I will work on submitting it on Thursday.

Friday - Post 100 | A3T1 done!

We started off today with a general knowledge quiz by Jordan. As he forgot to create it for yesterday, he made it for today. In the end I managed to get 5/10 that was not too bad as the lowest was a massive 2/10.

After that we learnt about assignment three task two. This has quite a bit to write about however it does look quite simple. I will be starting that on Tuesday as I just finished assignment three task one. There are different terms we have to talk about and it is a merit task so I do not need go into too much detail.

For most of the day I worked on assignment three task one. I had to draw all of the plans for my webpages that took quite a while. In the end I managed to finish them and scan all of the drawings into the document. Then I had to write about the folder structure and how I will set it up. This did not take too long to do.

Thursday - Assignment two / three

We started off today with learning about assignment three. This assignment is for the actual designing of the website. We have to create a website about ourselves and include features such as a table, 5 pages and images. I have started to plan my website however I did not have too much time to do so as I was working on assignment two.

I firstly worked on assignment two task two as it is in for Friday and I had a bit left to do. I had to write about CAPTCHA, Data Protection Act and Barclays policy on data protection. This took a bit of time as I had to research all of the different parts. In the end I managed to get it done just before lunch so after lunch I could work on assignment three.

Finally I worked on assignment three. I worked on designing a structure diagram for my site as this was the first part I needed to do. This did not take too long however I did have to come up with my different webpages. After that I worked on designing my web pages. I managed to get the design I wanted down and I just need to add the information to all of the other pages.
