Main Multimedia Project


This year students were encouraged to work in pairs on the main multimedia project. This project is weighted the same as all other modules. Students are expected to produce an interactive multimedia website or application.
My partner and I are working on designing a responsive website which features a Bird Identifier. The project requires us to produce an accompanying Blog to document the process of designing and coding the site.
There's a bit more info on the project in this post.


Interactive Interface Design


This project requires the student to design an app to function as a loyalty rewards scheme for the canteen at L.I.T. The design process for the projects focuses on user needs. The design is at wireframe / concept design currently.

In addition to app, we are also required to create an on-line portfolio and branded CV. These are to be used when approaching companies for work experience.
