Software

 

This website was designed using Frontpage.

The quiz was created using 'HotPotatoes'. http://web.uvic.ca/hrd/halfbaked/

 

User Testing

 

This website is being tested at present with the

students from Franz Josef Glacier School.

This website is ideally suited for senior students working as peer tutors with juniors to support reading and the quiz.

From reports so far, students have been positive about the layout, easily navigating their way around the site. I also called upon people from organisations in the links above, to assist me in user testing.

 

I see this as work in action where new information can be added as it comes to hand.

For sometime now we have been learning about Rowi with visits from the Kiwi team.

While nothing can replace the thrill of those visits

and the chance to see Rowi (we've even seen a

Rowi chick being fed!) it is good to have this information under 'one roof'.
