Next+Steps

The results of this project will provide ICCIT with a foundational design which can be used going forward in their efforts to develop a new department website. The sitemap provides a suggested organizational structure of the website’s content, which is a very useful tool for website design. In addition to this, the homepage and virtual portfolio wireframes offer a preliminary arrangement of two key aspects of the website’s functionality.

We recommend that ICCIT should use a Content Management System (CMS) to develop and implement the final website design. The CMS must offer the flexibility needed for personal customization and collaboration between users. Once the decision of a CMS type has been finalized, the sitemap and wireframes can be use to create the basic skeleton of functionality for the website. Graphic designers should be consulted in order to find the most suitable visual art direction for the website.

We would be glad to assist with any future stages of this design project. We will also be available to perform a usability session to evaluate its early prototype stages. We hope that our involvement has been beneficial to the CCIT department, and have enjoyed our involvement in this project.
