LO4: Site Structure Diagram

What is a site structure diagram?
Used to plan the layout of a website, game, social media, apps
Computer programmers/developers would be using this to make the website with this design - how they're going to make the product
Needs instructions for how the end user/audience is going to use it

What type of media products would it be needed for?
Websites and interactive media

What does navigation mean?
How to use the product, get around the product - using hyperlinks, buttons

Who would the end-user be?
The audience

Give examples of an interactive media product:
Game
Website
App
Social media

If you're asked to draw a site structure diagram in the exam - what should your annotations include?
The importance of hyperlinks and where they will take the audience
Explain how pages are linked together to benefit the audience
Why interactive features would be on each page (photos/videos/sounds), linked to the brief
Why each page and sub-page is there based on the brief, include interactive features for each page
Most important pages and links based on the brief
How the 'Home' page will work with the rest of the site
Why some things may be excluded based on the brief
Only thing you should say about the housestyle - that the designer would make it consistent throughout
