Where I got my links for my pictures on continents pages.

This is my links to my pictures I have used. I wanted to incorporate images of Countries in my website to relate to Georgraphy that they are currently learning. I want to break up my facts with pictures so my target audience are more enthusiastic about learning facts on the world. I also hope my adding pictures of Countries it will give them a better insight into the Global Village theory and what Marshall McLuhan is saying on the world and the impact of electronic media. The colour and contrast has also been edited in them to make them bold and bright to fit in with my website.

Videos

Skype Video

This video best explains the Global Village as Skype allows people across the world to connect. This video also is told in a story mode which would relate best to young people. It includes reference to other technologies such as mobile phones and fax machines.

Marshall McLuhan

The Marshall McLuhan video  is also going to included on my website  . I do not expect my audience to want to watch all 8 minutes of it but hopefully a few minutes of it will allow them to take something away from it. The video also was filmed in  1960 so it gives an example of how technology has changed . Parents and Teachers also might view my website so they will be able to  understand the motivation behind my website.

Create a Navigation Menua
1. Decide on colours and typeface

Who? Page

The previous idea was to do a page on 'Different Types of Technology Page' but instead this page will now be labelled 'Who?' This will include inventions and who made them and the year, such as mobile phones and televisions. I decided on doing this as when Researching Continents, I came across these facts so have decided to do a separate page on Inventors. The page will be titled, 'Who?' as I don't want to put a long title as I want my audience to click on it.

Quiz Page

Instead of having 'The History of Technology' page in place I will have a quiz page which will test my target audience on my website facts. From looking at other educational websites, a 'Quiz' page is important as it encourages children to pay more attention and they will find it rewarding.

Image included on my 'Quiz' page:

(http://sueatkinsparentingcoach.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Traffic-Lights.gif)

I have used the website: http://www.quizbox.com/ to design my quiz.
The  Quiz will be multiple choice incase some of the questions are too hard. It is hard writing for a target audience of 10 to 15 year olds.

Title: The Global Vision

What the website is lacking so far is a title header for the website. 

The chosen title is:
The Global Vision

Global= in relation to the Global Village to put that into my website title.

Vision= the whole point of the website is for my target audience to see where each part of the world currently stands.

To make the website header I have used Photoshop. The font was chosen firstly and then given a black background. As my website is colourful I wanted something bold and simple so it wouldn't clash.

Making the banner the right size was an obstacle as I didn't want it to be bigger than my navigation bar. 

My name has also been incorporated into the header as it needed something in the spare space of the title.
