Checklist to Achieve Distinction 1

Unit 6: Website Development


Level 3. Learning aim A: (A.P1, A.M1, A.D1)

P1. Compare the principles of website design used in two websites,


including their suitability for the intended audience and intended
purpose.
You must give a detailed comparison of two websites

For example Asda and Tesco – two similar commerce sites, with an explanation of who
the site is aimed at and its purpose.

Purpose of websites, including the features of:

1. content-based (Web 2.0 technologies)


2. product and/or service-based
3. Target audience, e.g. social networker, seekers, gamers, buyers, age profile,
gender requirements, e.g. user-friendly, consistent, navigational,
customisable, and flexible.

Explain the use of design principles in each website to compare their application.

Principles of website design:

1. E.g. usability, white space, site layout, accessibility, spacing, navigation,


typography, alignment, clarity, consistency/intuitiveness, accuracy, content,
media, simplicity.
2. Media and objects, e.g. position, colour, contrast, size, appropriateness.
3. Creativity and innovation, e.g. unconventional layouts, white space, ‘outside
of the box’ thinking, golden ratio.
4. Search engine optimisation, e.g. indexing (meta tags), use of keywords,
importance of updates, limiting crawling.

The evidence may have some inaccuracies and the comparison may be unbalanced.

M1. Analyse how the principles of website design are used to


produce creative, high performance websites which meet client
requirements.
You must show a clear understanding of how the two sites employ different principles of
website design to develop websites that are creative and high performing.

Give a detailed analysis of how user needs and principles of website design impact on the
design and development of a website.

The report must provide a balanced discussion, supported by reasoned examples. It will
be technically accurate and demonstrate good-quality written/oral communication.

Unit 6: Website Development

D1. Evaluate how the principles of website design are used to


produced creative, high performance websites which meet client
requirements
Give a detailed and balanced evaluative report that explains how the two sites meet user
requirements.

This must be explored further by identifying the requirements of the websites, for example, it
has a secure login, and why these are important for the user.

Discuss what overall impact the site will have on the organisation, including positive and
negative outcomes.

The report will demonstrate high-quality written/oral communication through use of accurate
and fluent technical vocabulary to support a well-structured and considered response that
clearly connects chains of reasoning.
