Authoring Package Vs Presentation Software

FROM SCHOLAR

Follow 3 of the stages of the Software development process to complete this task, omitting ‘Analysis’, ‘Documentation’ and ‘Evaluation’.

You should create two versions of your completed design – one using Dreamweaver, the other using PowerPoint.

You do not have long to complete this task, so keep your designs SIMPLE.

The purpose of this task is not to produce fabulous, complete multimedia applications, but to use both a Presentation and Authoring package to complete the same task. This should allow you to compare both programs.

Your brief:

Create a multimedia application to introduce people to you and two of your interests.

You must complete this task using only 3 screens or pages.

Each screen must not contain any more than 2 images (although you can use a background) – Use the same images on both.

Your system should be easy to navigate, so design the navigation method carefully.

Step 1 Design

  • Design the navigation structure, showing how all 3 pages link together. Design the rough layout for each page, mentioning the content and navigation features.

Step 2 Implementation

  • Create your application using Powerpoint.

Step 3 Testing

  • Make sure that all the links and navigation features work. Make sure that each page is displayed/animated as you wish.

Step 4

  • Repeat Steps 2 & 3, this time using Dreamweaver.
