This is the fourth IDIC (International Diploma in Computing) Module that I take during term 3 2007 in Informatics Computer School Singapore. It is a bit different compared to the first three modules that I posted before (C1025, C1004, and C1006). Because this module doesn’t come in form of assignment and test but only one project.

Basically, our project in this module is to create a website using HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) and Javascript. The javascript part is more important because your website codes will need to consist of 70% javascript and 30% HTML codes.

There are three things that you will need to submit to complete this module:

1. Project Proposal
2. The Finished Website
3. Final Project Documentation

First of all, you will need to submit the project proposal, it will tell about what website are you going to make, for what company (fictional), and for what purpose. Keep in mind that this project will mainly focus on marking the forms in your website related with the input validation function. To get a good mark you will need to have around two to four forms in your website with its own validation functions. Keep in mind that the number of forms you have in the website does not equal with the mark (more form doesn’t mean more mark), two or three forms with proper validation function should be enough for you to get an A.

The idea about what website you are going to make should help you to put some forms in the website, do not choose a website that is hard for you to put forms such as company profile website. Here are some ideas for your project:

1. Make a website that allows you to put forms such as travel agency website, on line shop, etc.
2. Forms can be form to ask question, place order, buy items, search form, survey, polling, etc (keep it reasonable)
3. You can use Java applets to enhance your website and i encourage you to do so
4. Consider the boundary of your project, a small finished project is better than big but unfinished project.
5. Apart from javascript and HTML, you may use CSS (Cascading Style Sheet) as well

The last tips is Self Study! Yes you will need to do a lot of self study about how to use Javascript and HTML, don’t rely on what the lecturer teach you in the class because it is very slow and you may end up not having enough time to finish your project. So do your own research and self study, books and Internet are there for you to learn. Any Questions or comments?

The next part I will post my project proposal when I do this module last 2007.

To be continued in the next post….

Do you have any comment on this? maybe you have something to ask me or want to discuss with me about this?Or maybe you are IDIC student and taking this module also?
