Embedded Files
This website was created as a professional portfolio of my work experience as an Instructional Designer. It mostly contains items made during my master’s program at the University of South Carolina. This site is also to showcase my work to possible employers.
This site was created with the audience in mind, but still embraces the authentic version of me. The bright rainbow color scheme represents part of who I am and what I represent. Let’s those who see the site know that what I’m happiest being authentically me and embracing the uniqueness. The fonts were chosen because Lobster truly stands out as a header and Roboto is traditional enough but still different in its own ways. I created a style guide and the pages under Master of Education were scripted in a word document to address certain questions and points that were needed. The website had already been put together when I updated it with additional accessibility needs such as alternative text and using buttons that say click here to view something.
I chose a base template from google sites for this webpage but customized every aspect of it. The only thing that remains is the header is a picture on each page. Fortunately google sites is a modular site the only thing I really had to custom integrate was my AECT Standards table. Which just needed some tweaking to make it work the way I needed it to. I used a combination of buttons and link embedding, both in and outside of photos of different projects to allow the viewer access to see more and be interactive. The site and its content were developed in a word document that was reviewed by my peers in the master’s program, by my instructor, and by other professionals from other fields. I appreciate all the feedback I can get. Most people like that the site is bright and colorful, but they appreciate that it also serves a purpose of representing who I am. I did start out with a lighter green color for the base of the site and a few people mentioned it was too bright and there wasn’t enough contrast for them so I went to a darker color which seemed to cause less eye strain, but it ended up helping the rainbow of colors pop even more.
