Campus High School Library

    On this project, I played mainly a tutoring and consulting role. The objective was to assist a teacher from USD 261 in learning DreamWeaver, and getting a design that was appealing and easy to navigate. The intended audience for this page was students, teachers, and parents interested in research resources. Things that I personally designed were the logo on the index page, various small HTML scripts, and design recommendations.
