Artefact 2 and 3 (plans)

Website ideas/plans

Artefact 2 and 3 will be used to produce two complete different experience’s to test the interaction in websites. They will enable me to see the audience’s reaction towards the different interactions in web pages.
This artefact will consists of a web based application with a series of three interlinked pages. This will give an experience and atmosphere similar to any existing web application. The only difference is that this web site will be designed to have all the interactions that engage the audience. This will work to test if the interactions enhance an experience and how they can keep the viewer interested. This particular artefact will consist of a website that uses different theories and principles with different forms of interactions. It will then be used and tested by a group of participants. In addition a focus group or set of questions will be asked to get accurate data that will be then compared with the results from artefact 2. Artefact 2 will be another website in the same genre. It will consist of opposite features not following the design principles or any forms of interaction. This will show the differences and how simple interactions can make a responsive website whilst engaging the audience.

Artefacts 2 and 3 are both web applications that will work together to test if interaction is a key element in keeping a viewer on a website and engaging them.

Initial plan for Artefact 1:
Website 1 (interactive site) will consist of:
4 pages
A homepage with interactions, images, J query galleries, graphics, media e.g. audio or video
Structured to the F model
Structured to the Lockwood design principle and other design theories

Artefact 2:
Website 2 (minimal design)
Bulks of text
Poor use of colours
Not structured to design theories or principles
No media
No J query animations or slide motions
