| The
Pollen Park Website has been developed by Christina
Handford, studying BA (Hons) Interactive Multimedia
at Staffordshire University.
The site has been designed to answer the brief set out in
the final year module; Hypermedia.The brief stated that
the student, working with the cooperation of a primary school
teacher, should design an online computer assisted learning
project that will support a specific area of the UK's National
Curriculum within a chosen Key Stage. The piece should to
be finished to a final standard and should be 'narrow in
focus yet deep in structure'.
In accompaniment to the online artifact, the module required
the development of a strategic project report. This featured
a detailed review of literature and a discussion of design
decisions and methods. Click
here to download a copy of the report in pdf format.
This
application has been developed in co-operation with Jackie
Oakes and her Year 6 Class at The Marsh County Primary School,
and under the direction of Dr. Mellissa Lee Price.The
module home page can be found at: www.mystery-productions.info/hyper
