Choose a website that you visit often and explain how color is used on the home page. Do not choose a flash introduction or splash page; you should instead look for a page designed to deliver content. Write the following for your initial post:
In your initial post's first paragraph:
- Identify your choice of website and provide the full URL (Web address), not a text link. In short paragraphs, answer at least three of the following in relation to your choice of site
- How color assists with grouping and/or emphasis of selected content on the site
- How color on the site provides an integral part of company/product branding
- How the color choices aid in or detract from readability
- How color is used to assist in comprehension, recall, and/or retention of information
- How the choice of colors might be intended to evoke an emotional response or cultural connection
Your initial post should show an understanding of the textbook Reading. Do not quote from sources, but if you refer to the textbook or any other source, remember to use proper citation and a reference entry.
Subject line instructions: Write the name of the website (not the URL) as the subject line for your initial post. If possible, try to choose a site that has not been already discussed at the time you are ready to post.
