Term Project Proposal
CIS 195, Web Authoring 1: HTML and CSS
Objectives
The term project is your opportunity to practice and demonstrate all the HTML and CSS concepts and skills you’ve learned this term by building a multi-page web site with content of your choice. This proposal is your plan for that site. Writing it now gives you time to gather content and images and get feedback before you start making the site.
Consult the Term Project Requirements so you know what you need to include in your sit.
Project Suggestions
These are just ideas to help spark your imagination. You don’t have to do one of these projects.
- A site about a hobby or interest, like gardening, gaming, hiking trails, or music.
- A site for a club, team, or community organization.
- A site for a real or fictional small business, like a café, bike shop, or pet-sitting service.
- A travel guide to a place you know well.
- A collection of recipes, with a table of ingredients or a meal plan.
- A portfolio site that showcases your work and skills.
- Ask AI to help you brainstorm ideas after you’ve already come up with some of your own.
Proposal
Write a proposal with these parts:
- Description: Two paragraphs describing what your site will be about, who the audience is, and what you want visitors to get from it.
- Pages: A list of the five (or more) pages, with a sentence about the purpose of each one.
- Required elements: Which page will have the table, and what it will show. Where the three figures will go, and where you will put images.
I don’t expect you to know how you will use the CSS layout features we haven’t covered yet, but describe how your site will use the HTML and CSS you have learned so far.
Submission
