Web Store Design Layout Project

 Each week builds on itself in order to help you to design a web store  layout.This week you will continue to research and thoughtfully develop  your web store.

This week's design layout project has us working  on collecting content relevant to your site.  Think about what's  needed.  After collecting ideas of what you want on your site, use the  method of your choice (drawn from the lecture) to organize, edit,  outline, and chunk your content. Then, decide how you will you organize  your list.  You can organize this by putting topic headings of your  categories down and then write about what information will be shown in  each.   It's going to be important to go through the lecture this week  in order to know what's important in chunking and how to organize that  information.

After watching this week's lecture complete this week's portion of the project.

Collect  content relevant to your site.  Then use the method of your choice  (drawn from the lecture) to organize, edit, outline, and chunk your  content. Upload your findings here.
