Internet Expedition: Design and Layout Principles

On this expedition, you will be searching for definitions and explanations of the terms listed
below. You have been given a list of places to journey to and search for the information
(websites). After you collect the necessary information, you will use it to create a PREZI that
is both informative and that uses principles of design and layout. You can still be creative, but
you must make it appealing to watch and clear in its purpose of presenting these terms and
principles. Feel free to use the sites listed below. They have definitions and examples that you
can use in your presentation. Remember to cite them as sources on your presentation. You
should collect your information first. This will take you 1-2 class periods. After you have
collected the information, you will need 2-3 class periods to create your presentation. Some of
you will be asked to present your PREZI to the class. Have fun, be creative
