.We are only concentrating on making these 3 pages—but the navigation should absolutely suggest the rest of the pages exist on the website.
index.html
— HomepageThe homepage of the rescue website should accomplish the goals for the target audience you’ve researched when doing your UX.
rescues.html
— List of Available RescuesThe Rescues page is the page that lists all the available animals, giving details about each animal and photos of what they look like.
adopt.html
— Adopt a RescueThe Adopt page is the huge form that users fill out to adopt a rescue animal. Look at some examples like Loyal Rescue.
There are a few different things that will be checked throughout the process:
This website is to prove that you—by yourself—can do everything we covered in class. Look back over all the assignments from the term, determine what kernel of knowledge they were trying to teach you, and see if you can implement it in this website.
There should be a significant example of everything we’ve learned this term in this website. Leave the impression that you’ve confident with what we’ve learned and can apply everything.
Markbot has a bunch of expectations on the code of your website. But luckily for you no screenshot checking.

In class, week 15, we will be doing lots of peer testing—most of the website needs to be complete by then.
Each person will be assigned a tool and will be required to test everybody’s websites.

Drop this folder into your Markbot application. Make sure to fix all the errors. And submit to Canvas using Markbot.
When you submit, Markbot will give you 1
or F
—that’s just so you know that it was handed in on Canvas. You’ll still have to write a Request for Grade and the teacher will still be grading it personally.
