In groups, you need to produce a working website or prototype using web technologies (20% of the total mark).

Individually, you need to produce some further documentation (50% of the total mark):

  • A blog or site of your activity, progress, learning and reflection that you experience throughout the course of the project. The sorts if things I'd like to hear about are: backround reading and research, how you apply that to your projects, how the project is progressing, key decisions youtook or didn't and the effect that had, and reflection on things you do differently next time.
