Introduction

This course is designed as a intensive exploration of the adaptation of history to a digital environment. As such it is a course in applied history. While the central goal of the course is the development of an original digital history project of professional quality, the course will also examine issues in project management, information design, code (HTML, CSS, PHP) and aesthetic design.

Wireframes Magazine

One good resource for your information architecture assignment is Wireframes Magazine. Essentially a blog with brief posts on a particular approach to or development in information architecture. Their recent post is on Content Sitemaps, which encourages more details about page content on a site map. I’ve used the Tracing Paper Layers approach to an IA problem often, and have found it a great way to try out and share new ideas quickly.
