My Current Work:
JavaScript
JavaScript is often considered the scripting language of the web and is used almost everywhere from forums to Google.
My final for this class is a JavaScript calculator on this page. |
Schoolwires
Schoolwires is system that manages several programs seamlessly together to create several websites for schools that share information and can be subscribed to easily.
Their website can be found here. I have received formal training in their system and I am helping with my school's website migration from Weebly to this new school wires site, although the Schoolwires version is not currently open to the public. The "Centricity2" client uses a completely different style of website creation than Weebly and was odd to get used to but works just as well as a drag and drop interface like Weebly. During the process of training I got to work with several other people on the same site and feel what it was like to create a site with other people, collaborating and considering instead of just taking the opinions of myself and the owner of the site. |
Wildcat TV
I run the website that keeps the staff and students of Mount Si High School updated on school news.
That Web site can be found here. This site has let me practice my skills with routine site management including daily blog updates video uploading and archiving and paying attention to site visitors and page views. Running this site has required me to teach other people how to do other things for the site. For instance, the video creation, uploading and embedding is all done by Kelby Kilburn while I archive the videos and check his work. After that I go on to do just about everything else. |
Weebly
Weebly is the editor that I use to make websites without just coding it by hand so I don't have to repeatedly type every style of every paragraph and build a site in a timely way.
Their website can be found here. Weebly makes things like Wildcat TV possible as I can have other People do minor things like uploading videos for me so I have time to work on the rest of the site, as well as other things entirely. Despite how helpful Weebly is, there will always need to be a web developer at the helm, even if the creative design is done by someone else, there still needs to be someone to put it into HTML. It shows me that there is still a need for web developers to not only build sites, but guide those who don't actually know how to build a site. |
