Web Design Activities Chapter 10: Diction: The Choice of Words
- What are the website design equivalents of vagueness, jargon, triteness, and ineffective imagery in writing? Try to find some examples of websites that exhibit these kinds of design flaws.
- Write a brief critique of each of these web pages about eclipses:
Mr. Eclipse http://www.mreclipse.com/
Exploratorium Eclipse http://www.exploratorium.edu/eclipse/
Earthview Eclipse Network http://www.earthview.com/tutorial/causes.htm
Choose one page and redesign it to be more effective. Search the Web for noncopyrighted images of eclipses or other images you can use, or create your own original graphics. What sort of "design diction" can you use to improve your selected page?
