What's the coolest thing you've learned in Web Design so far? Why is it so cool and how can it help you in the future?

The coolest thing we have learned so far in Web Design is the resume website. I think knowing how to make our own websites is something we can all use in the future. We have learned how to do really neat designs and add aspects to our website that makes it look very professional. I would actually like to be able to use my resume website because it looks legitimate and we have learned how to code and add everything in on our own.

Define 'User Experience'. What does it mean and how does it relate to web design? Explain yourself.

According to Google, 'User Experience' is: The overall experience of a person using a product such as a website or computer application, especially in terms of how easy or pleasing it is to use.

This relates back to web design because when making websites in this class, we want to make sure that people can easily navigate our site. That way, it will be easier and more enjoyable to the user and they will be more interested in visiting the website again.

What is a resume website? What do people put on resume websites. Spend about 5-10 minutes looking up resume websites and what they are used for. Explain what you find. Include an image of a resume website if possible.



This is an example of a resume website. It states the persons name and his job title. There are different tabs that contain information about the things he has done and the experience he has. There is also a section of contact information that allows you to communicate with him. It says he is looking for a job and to contact him, so companies can easily see all about his experience.

Over the weekend, I hung out with Claudia quite a bit. We went to Take 5 and worked on AP Psychology as well as our senior speeches. I got Chipotle for lunch on Saturday, and ate Mr. Goodcents for lunch on Sunday. Overall, the weekend was very relaxing, but I was able to get a lot of work done. I also began packing for my Spring Break trip to NYC.

If you were the Principal for a week at BVHS, what would that look like? What changes would you make? Why?

If I were Principal for a week at BVHS, I would spend the day going around and talking to the students in the halls and seeing how they were doing. I would make a couple of changes to the time school starts by making every day late start! That way, students will be more energized and ready to learn because they won't be so tired.

On Friday night I went to the Buckets for Bacon charity basketball game at BVHS. It was a great experience and a lot of money was raised that will go to Relay for Life. On Saturday, I went to work with Freddy and left early because of the weather. The roads were very slippery and it was just too dangerous to get out and drive. Sunday, I went to Barnes and Noble with my dad to look around at books and then we ate lunch at Dean & Deluca. My sister made cookies, and for the rest of the day I just stayed inside and rested. Overall, it was a pretty good weekend.
