Important Message
Building Joomla website using cloudaccess.net is very intuitive – I encourage you to explore the tools available
It is your responsibility to ensure your website hosting is active (under cloudaccess free account) until the end of the semester – this is required for the marking team to assess your work
Reminder
Building Joomla website is a requirement for this course, however:
Website that you build are for assessment demonstration purposes only so that you experience a real-life “feel” of your online business strategies
You are not expected to possess or build web design, programming and hosting skills during this course
No paid hosting, paid Joomla extensions or third-party support/ services are to be sought
Please do not try to build a “perfect” looking or functioning website – remember we want you to build a “prototype” and please only try to meet the assessment requirements
The course focus and assessment weightings are significant for the assignment reports rather than website development.
