The overall goal for the project web is to demonstrate what the students have learned during the course. The development of the projectweb should follow the procedure described in lecture 2: http://it.civil.auc.dk/it/education/slides/project_web_2.html The project web should reflect that the students have considered:
It shall be emphasized here that different groups have different ambition levels and that they have great freedom to design and implement their project webs. During the course several IT tools to use have been presented. The Project Webs can be used to document the project and the actual project work process as well as be a support during the project work. There is only a minimum compulsory requirement on content (project description, solution strategy and findings from the project work, solution summary, and references.) C202 [examination 4.6.2003] C203 [examination 11.6.2003] C204 [examination 4.6.2003] C205 [examination 3.6.2003] C206 [examination 13.6.2003] C207 [examination 10.6.2003] C208 [examination 11.6.2003] C218 [examination 17.6.2003] C219 [examination 6.6.2003] C222 [examination 12.6.2003] C201[up]This site is aimed at presenting the project work results and ICT knowledge acquired during the semester. The graphical layout is clean and navigation is easy through Macromedia Flash driven menus residing in top horisontal frame. Greyscale is used throughout the site (also company logos in the link list i.e. they are not in original colors). All courses are presented. Findings from the IT course is presented for each lecture accompanied with examples especially on use of graphical tools. The project work is presented both as downloadable PDF reports and as web pages with appropriate .jpg and .gif image illustrations. Example input files used in calculations (Matlab and Excel) are also presented. The underlying file structure seems to be well designed. C202[up]This site works both as a project web for the project participants and supervisors as well as a presentation of the project for others. The group has considered access rights for internal and eksternal users and thus password protected the collaboration area. The site contains drawings, photos and video clips, which are presented in a very intuitive user interface (a few drawings are in jpg format, which is not the best for this type of graphics). Under the subject "IT" the group gives a very good description of the tools and methods used to produce the website and it is clear that they have put a large effort into this project. The underlying file structure is well considered. C203[up]This site gives a short presentation of the project and its participants. The design considerations from a ICT perspective is also shortly commented on (frame layout, navigation paradigm, use of style sheets etc.). The site has a clear and simple design and is easy to navigate with top horisontal and left navigation frames. The project work is very shortly described and illustrated with commented images and videos. The project reports are also downloadable as PDF files from a password protected area. Unfortunately the group has used back-slashes in some URL addresses. This will cause hinder access to these pages when viewed on other platforms than Windows. There is a underlying file structure that though could be further developed to meet future expansion demands (e.g. images in separate folders). C204[up]This site is simple and relatively easy to navigate through. It serves mainly as an information site about the project where pdf files of the groups report can be downloaded. In addition there are photos from the construction site presented in a nice navigation interface. The group has put a large effort into the coding and the underlying file structure is fine. They have experimented with password protected areas for a group intranet with internal information on group members as well as a "download area" (link to ftp program). There is a fine explanation on IT tools used this semester but although the group has been very active during the course excersises they do not present many of the subjects treated in the course. C205[up]The site is simple and easy to navigate. The group has chosen a solution with no frames and they have put an effort into writing and validation of the html code. It is possible to download various types of project documents. Some of them have a short description of the content including file size, while especially the Autocad drawings could benefit from a further explanation and download instructions. From the course content the group has focused on html coding and presentation of panorama photos with a clickable site map as navigation interface. The site map (and a few other drawings) is in jpg format which is not the best solution for this type of graphics. The group has not presented work on object oriented CAD models and databases. The underlying file structure is well considered.
C206[up]This site is generally very well explained and easy to navigate (however, in my opinion the main menu is not too intuitive). The site contains descriptions of the project persons, and a well structured list of downloadable files with short and clear descriptions including file size in some cases. The group gives an explanation of their results of the course excersises including panorama photos, VRML-models and a very good description of tools used to create the website. The underlying file structure seems to be a little too complex with a number of empty folders probably generated by some of the tools used. C207[up]This site gives a short introduction to the groups project, the participants and the project schedule. There is a download area which seems to be for local university use only, but this is not clearly explained (there are internal links to the local file system). The site was initially created in a standard template of a commercial html editor, but the group has put an effort into coding their own menus and frame structure with a very nice user interface. However, some of the pages and the file structure still carry the stamp of the commercial editor. Under the menu item "Media", the group reports their experiences from the course excersises on object oriented CAD models, computergraphics as well as a small drawing database. C208[up]This site is aimed at accounting experiences and knowledge mastered during the semester ICT course and put in practice through presentation of the semester main project. The site has a good graphical design and is easy to navigate via the left navigation frame. The project work are shortly commented on and mainly through images (it is though impossible to download drawings, they do not seem to exist at the site). Experiences from exercises, programming the web site, and work with images and browsing pallets are well reported. (The size definition given to the top view frame of the image browse function will give presentation problems in some browsers). The underlying file structure is reported and commented on and seems to be well designed.C218[up]This site give some information on the groups semester project work. More information can be downloaded as PDF files. The site has a good graphical layout with a horisontal top navigation frame. No update information is given on the web pages. The semester courses are shortly commented on some results from the ICT course exercises presented. Comments are also given on some of the ICT tools used in design of the site. The underlying file structure is well suited for the purpose of the site. C219[up]This site has a simple and clean design with navigation frame in a left vertical frame with pull down menus. The colored background is seemless integrated over three frames. The site is aimed at explaining how a projectweb can be used to enhance communication between building project stakeholders. There is a password protected document download area at the site. The project work is very summary reported with time schedules and meetings with supervisors. There though seems to be some programming mistake as instead of meeting notes (the files exists) the 'supervisor presentation' page is displayed. Time schedules are presented through use of background color in tables. Image browse pallets works fine though without building site explanation texts. Also a handy Javascript driven slide show is used. Site design considerations are well reported with comments on made solutions. Statistics are collected and presented on visitors screen resolutions, page hit rates and used browser. The underlying file structure seems to be well designed. C222[up]This site has a very nice and easy to navigate user interface. It gives information on the groups project and course activities during the semester. There are photos from the construction site and short introductions to different aspects of the project. In addition the groups entire semester report can be downloaded (however, there seemed to be download problems when this was written). The group gives a good overview of their work with the course excersises, e.g. object oriented CAD models and collaboration tools. The group has put a succesful effort into the html coding and the underlying file structure of the site is well considered. |
