Nadinne's Presentation

While attending Nadinne’s presentation I learn many ways to help enhance the development of my designs. She taught me to be creative while developing any projects. I began noticing this creative thought when she gathered us all in the front and back of the room to display which items were most important to people and then asked us why.

This exercise also taught me to prioritize my items; in web design this is very important. By keeping our most important links in plain view of our users it makes the site easy to navigate and user friendly.

Nadinne wanted us to voice our opinions about the subject matter at hand, she taught us to be bold. After thinking about how this could be related to web design I realized that bold web sites are the most attractive ones. Nadinne taught us to be bold with our ideas and to portray then onto the web.

The main focus in Nadinne’s presentation was community serves. This is a great way to help people, in our line of work we need to figure out a way to help people easily navigate our web sites. By creating an easy navigation bar we can make peoples experience on our site enjoyable.
