How to create your website
To create your website, you have two choices: 1. use iWeb software (on BBMS computers) 2. use HTML coding in a program like TextEdit or Notepad (this requires advanced knowledge and is entirely OPTIONAL)

Making a Page

 * To make a page, go to file and select "New Page"
 * You can decide the design of the page by looking at the different options on the left column
 * To select the format of your page, look at the templates on the right and pick the one that best suits what you will put on this page
 * Do not discard the template named "Blank Page" simply because it is "blank." It is a catch-all page for any type of document and extremely useful!

Writing Your Website

 * 1) Insert a text box. Use the bottom toolbar and select this button

1. Science content:

 * is it correct?
 * is the science explained in a way that you can understand?
 * is information missing?

2. Website Layout and Design:

 * was the page easy to navigate?
 * are any links broken?
 * is information missing?
 * are photos used to generate interest?
 * are photos placed appropriately?

3. Validity:

 * did the student analyze the error?
 * Is the information cited properly?
 * are pictures created by the student or cited from outside sources?
 * are there spelling or grammar errors?

4. Personal Information:

 * are last names included?
 * are faces visible?

[|Example A:]
 **Example # A**

**Overall impression:** Nice layout of information. Nice choice of colors. Watch size fonts, especially observation page. Remember to cite sources. Information on Project Info page missing.
 * **Criteria** || **Compliments and Criticisms** || **Grade (A-E)** ||
 * Sci. content || observations very weak, where is the background info? || E ||
 * Web D&L || easy to navigate- all links are correct || B ||
 * Validity || many spelling errors, hypothesis starts with "I", first person is used for most of the project, which makes it seem very unprofessional, where is the data to support your conclusion? Include a bibliography || E ||
 * Pers. Info || Included first and last name || E ||
 * My choice (Images) || only one image, which was not cited. more pictures would enhance this project, especially of the experimental setup || E ||
 * My choice (clear procedure) || good job of putting it in step by step order. relatively clear and easy to repeat || B ||

[|Example B:]

 * Example # B**
 * **Criteria** || **Compliments and Criticisms** || **Grade (A-E)** ||
 * Sci. content || glossary is helpful, good background info || A ||
 * Web D&L || photos were helpful, but took a long time to load- perhaps smaller image sizes would help? || B ||
 * Validity || main picture is cited, great job! the graphs look great with the error bars || A ||
 * Pers. Info || First and last name mentioned. Also, the thank you page was thoughtful, but it could be a problem to name people without asking. Faces shown || E ||
 * My choice (is it FUN?) || I like the scrolling question across the top ||  ||
 * My choice (use of colors) || bright and interesting || B ||
 * Overall impression:**  detailed, included standard deviation (basically, the uncertainty), thorough write-up, easy to read
