Ariga, T.; Watanabe, T.
Computers & Education, v51 n2 p815-828 Sep 2008
The explosive growth of the Internet has made the knowledge and skills for creating Web pages into general subjects that all students should learn. It is now common to teach the technical side of the production of Web pages and many teaching materials have been developed. However teaching the aesthetic side of Web page design has been neglected, and students not in art or design majors are normally confronted with difficulties when they do expressive design of Web pages. This paper proposes a learning process using worksheets called the Image-Plot and the Standard Design Table. These were developed as teaching materials for courses on the production of Web pages in universities and colleges. The learning process focuses especially on how to enhance the visual expression of Web pages. Using these worksheets for courses on the production of Web page raised students' consciousness of Web pages visual expression.
