In the project, CP5638 students will work together as part of a team to create a website doing the planning, design, production, usability testing and publishing, using HTML, CSS and JavaScript. The project will require research, self-directed learning, teamwork and consultation with your lecturer.
The project is to (re)develop a site for the Townsville Community Music Centre (TCMC).
You will be provided with some content and a reasonable idea of mission and target audience.
Important:The old (existing) TCMC site(http://townsvillemusic.org.au) should give you an idea of content but NOTdesign or information architecture. Plan and design the site mostly as if the old site did not exist. If it were good and appropriate the way it is now, we wouldn’t be making a new site.
Please ask any questions about this assignment on the LearnJCU discussion board or Facebook group.
You have two separate milestones as part of this one project. These are summarised here with further details below:
Milestone 1 – Project Plan & Design Comps
Create a project plan (including goal and audience analysis, flowchart, text, images and screen designs), which your group will continue developing to make the finished site.
Milestone 2 – Finished Product
This is the full, finished product website, the result of your team going through the complete website design and development process. Use the project plan to develop a functional, finished site. Your site should be “completed” by week 10, so that it is ready for usability testing. Assessment of this milestone is for both completeness and quality.

The information architecture is up to you to decide and the page/feature titles (e.g. “bulletin board”) are also able to be changed. E.g. the old site…
