Over the course of this project, I did quite a bit of work! At the very beginning, i was one of the first members to go up and get interviewed for a job. I strongly pushed the idea that i should be working with the website team, due to my technological skill, and experience with computers in general. I was approved, and I went off to work.
We each worked as a unit, to say, not one person would single handedly do a majority of the website. I will discuss two major contributions to the project; one of which seeming trivial, but posed a rather difficult challenge to our group. First and foremost, right on the website, you will notice a big, red button. It says, “help us make money”. It was not always red, and there was a long story involving how i made that button red. I had to delve deep into HTML code, and look all over for what corresponded with that button. After many trials and errors, I have that button red at last. This very button can be viewed above.
Not only this, but i also worked significantly on the “chemicals and bacteria page”. Along with a team member (nicole), we gathered the data that others had worked on earlier in their chemical group projects, and reviewed over their work. After briefly studying it, we wrote up brief summaries of each chemical/bacteria and its effects on the watershed. We also contacted another classmate for graphics of each image.
