The Four S’s of Netiquette - Website

Ethics - Artifact 2

This artifact is one of the first websites I developed in EDTECH 502 which should be clear by its brevity and simplicity. The content is based on a simple mnemonic I came up with to describe some netiquette guidelines, or how to behave online. As an IT administrator in a school, this is one topic I did spend time on educating both students and faculty. These guidelines have a strong cybersecurity slant because it was something I had to deal with on a daily basis.

Accessible Gaming - Website

Ethics - Artifact 3

The Accessible Gaming website was developed in EDTECH 502 and focused on two things I value highly: accessibility and gaming. Everyone should be able to share in the same fun activities many of us take for granted. The online charter school I used to work for had a large percentage of children with special needs. There was an even higher percentage of kids who enjoyed video games. I am reasonably sure the percentage approached 100% regarding that statistic!

3D Printing in the Classroom - Website

Ethics - Artifact 4

This is the final nonreactive website I created in EDTECH 502. At this point in the course I was starting to chafe against the limitations of basic html/css websites. Of course, there is a much higher ceiling than what I accomplished here but I knew there were more modern ways to build dynamic and reactive websites and was anxious to learn more about them. The content of this website is focused on the unique challenges 3D printing poses regarding intellectual property law and fair use.

Mesa Verde - Virtual Tour

Design & Development - Artifact 4

This artifact is a website developed by hand using the Bootstrap framework so that it is adaptive to screen size. This was one of the later websites that I developed in EDTECH 502 I think that is reflected in its cohesive design. This website was inspired by an actual tour of the Mesa Verde National Park that was subsequently “virtualized” in this website. Although the content of this website has little to do with my professional practice developing it did provide practice with front-end development.

A Caravaggio Webquest

Design & Development - Artifact 5

This artifact is another website developed by hand using the Bootstrap framework. This website is very similar to the previous artifact but I was able to experiment a little more with the css and develop tables and columns in the website layouts. Like the previous artifact, the content of this website has little to do with my professional practice. Meticulous coding is a part of my work however and while developing websites by hand even subtle differences require a significant amount of time.
