Assignment 1

Complete the following activities:

Create a design document for your group's site, using the guidelines provided in the Webmonkey IA tutorial.

You should create the document in a word processor, and submit it via the email. Page mock-ups can be included as part of the document (screen shots and diagrams), or you can provide an URL to a web-based mock-up as part of the design document.

Only one document should be submitted per group.

This assignment should be uploaded to Blackboard no later than the beginning of Week 8. A printed copy of the document should also be submitted.
