LBSC 690 - Information Technology
Assignment 4
For this week's assignment, we will integrate multiple media onto a
single Web page. Along the way, we'll learn a bit about how to find
this stuff. The assignment is to build a Web page with the following
content:
- A lecture video of our class. You can find these videos from our
syllabus or at Dr.
He's section 0301 syllabus. Your page must point directly to
the video, not to the syllabus page.
- An audio greeting in your own voice. The audio greeting should
not play automatically, rather, it should be played when the user
selects to hear the greeting. You may record the greeting any way
that you like, but Windows XP contains a sound recorder that is
suitable fort this task (Start->All
Programs->Accessories->Entertainment->Sound Recorder). You
can find a
sample audio file that I made if you want to see how this comes
out.
- A link to a tutorial that explains how JPEG or MP3 really
works. The trick here is to find a tutorial that provides a useful
degree of insight without getting lost in math. Your goal should be
to find an explanation that you think you and your classmates would
really find useful.
- A cartoon that contains a donkey found using Google Image Search
(http://www.google.com, select Images"). Your page must include the
cartoon as an inline image, not just as a clickable link to the
image.
- An audio interview with an Apollo astronaut that you found using
http://speechbot.research.compaq.com.
Your link should go directly to the audio, not to SpeechBot.
If you did not build your own personal Web page based on last
assignment, create an index.html file in your WAM ../pub/ directory
now (you can simply copy your 690.html file if you like) and add a
link to that page that points to the page you have created for this
assignment. Please email the URL of your index.html page to your TA
before the class session at which this is due.
As always, you may use any tools that you find useful e.g., HTML
editors, search engines,. ...) when designing this page.
