Client meeting

In IT we have been making iweb websites and here is what we did so far.


1. your design and layout of your web pages - does it fit your drawing/ plan?

My design that i planned does fit as the same way i wanted it to be, because there are some objects and items that i web doesn't provide but most of the things i need are there.

2. your topic and research. what have you done in class?

My topic is Floods and in class we were finding out information which are like; videos, pictures, quizzes and so much more.Then after we find out the question and book them in delicious.

3. Color, font and use of multimedia.

The font then i used was 16 because that's the only font that shows well in i web, my colors are orange and dark brown because it matches with the page that i chose. i have lots of pictures that show what what could happen and what happened after floods where occurred .

4. does it have five pages?

Now it has 4 pages but that is because im not finished with it but latter on in the future it will have 5 pages.

5. The features of apple i web. what us workig. what is not working in the i web application.

In the moment no i dont have an emergency plan but later on when we finish editing our website i will have 5 pages and the last page is and emergency and an reference page.


Here are my screen shots of my i web.

Guiding Questions:

1. Why is communication so important during an emergency?

Communication is very helpful and important during an emergency because it can inform you that where is the hurricane, where is it heading to, when is it going to stop and everybody needs to be aware if their community is getting stroked by a hurricane, and they need to be ready for everything.

2. What forms of communication have been used during recent disasters e.g Hurricane Katrina, the Tsunami?

I think that they have used radio, television, cellphones, and the internet of course.

3. What essential information needs to be communicated during a disaster or emergency?

The information needs to tell them that when and where is the disaster going to appear, and they should be ready and prepared.

4. What information can be created before the emergency? What information needs to be communicated during the emergency?

The information that needs to be created before the disaster strikes is that they have to report to people that there is e.g. a hurricane coming and the people need to move to shelter and they need to get their food, clothing and family to the shelter for safety.

5. What hardware and software is required to be able to communicate online?

Mobile phone:
A really helpful mobile phone is the Blackberry phone because what is good about all kinds of mobile phone not just blackberry is that if we are hit by a hurricane and experience a 9-day power/land line phone outage.

We can make use of WWW by using Micro Soft Word, Publisher, and web 2.0 by posting some information in the internet by using them. we could post pictures and information, so people could know whats going on around the world and maybe could help like in Palestine.

a disaster?

The internet could be used by HTML or online newspaper too, like famous websites like Google, Yahoo by posting what is going on.
