Travel Brochure Reflection
1.) Describe what you had to do in the assignment.
For this assignment I had to create a travel bureau website. This involved researching information about a selected country, and I chose Germany. Further, I organized the information by season so visitors would know what weather to expect and I also found prices for travel necessities, such as flights, hotels, restaurants, and even transportation once in the country. The goal was to convince classmates that the country would be good to visit.
2.) Describe the technology skills you had to use to complete this assignment.
Technology skills I used to complete this included further use of weebly and also using goanimate. I created a short clip to persuade users of the website that Germany was a good place to visit. On weebly, I embedded the video I made on goanimate. I used more tools on weebly, such as slideshows and google maps.
3.) Describe what you learned and accomplished by creating this piece of work.
By creating this website, I learned how to use more tools on weebly and also how to create a video on goanimate and embed it on weebly. The tools I used on weebly included google maps, slideshow, and embedding the video. I used goanimate to create the short clip and learned the tools on that site as well. By learning these new tools I was able to better my website overall by making it not only more attractive, but easier to use.
4.) Explain what you did well in this assignment?
In this assignment, I think I included a lot of additional things to make the information better organized and also more appealing to the visitors. By using slideshows, I could organize pictures easily. By including the map, visitors could get more of a sense of where they’d be visiting. Also, I was able to find a virtual 360 of one of the popular destinations, which I think makes the website more fun to explore.
5.) Explain what you would do differently to improve your work in this assignment?
To improve my work on my tourist bureau site, I would want to write less under each season. I would organize it so there weren’t bigger paragraphs but smaller, more important points of information. Also, I would make a better animation to better appeal to people using the site.
