Quarry Bank Mill - Student Built Websites 2001

Having built their own Quarry Bank Mill website, Y9 then spent a lesson surfing and assessing each others sites. Following the Humanities Department criteria for successful website design (FACS) and paying particular attention to the quality of the historical content, students were asked to write a brief review of all the websites and to identify their 'top three'. When all the votes were counted there were two clear winners: Grace and Claire with 11 votes each.
Claire

Why the best?

'a good amount of text and simple explanations' (Helena) 'very easy to read' (Simon) 'all the links work and it is self-explanatory' (Matthew) 'content is very clear' (Lisa) 'Different and simple, clear to read and good pictures' (Emily) 'Quick load-up and all the hyperlinks work' (Sarah) 

Grace

'Really easy to navigate' (Rachelle), 'Very good info, nice pics and colours' (Graeme), 'extremely good to look at without detracting from the text' (Hannah), 'this website is amazing' (Simone) 'Really cool layout and so much information' (Paul) 'Lot of information with eye-catching titles and colours' (Nick)
