As a web site author who will create your own web page content in this course, how would you rank the importance of the four C.R.A.P. principles of design on a scale of 1-5? Please provide a brief rationale to support each design principle ranking. As a website designer I could rank the importance of the four C.R.A.P. principles on 5 in a scale from 1-5 where five is very importance. After reading and watching the video about the C.R.A.P. principles everything makes more sense. Now I know why I do like some websites more than others or why it is easier for me to find things than other websites. Its because they are following the contrast so I can find exactly what I am looking for in credit card store payment website for example. Using an excellent Repetition on a website like Amazon, you will know when you are heading to the last item of the list because of the cohesive look. Also having the right alignment on a wellness or healthcare website will simplify the search. No less importance than the others using a great Proximity will make data more digestible on a google search. 5. What does the C.R.A.P. acronym stand for? C.R.A.P. acronym stand for Contrast, Repetition, Alignment, Proximity. 6. As a web site author who will create your own web page content in this course, how would you rank the importance of the five modes on a scale of 1-5? Please provide a brief rationale to support each mode ranking. As an author of my own website, I found these five modes very helpful, I kind of knew about them but in different way, back when I was studying marketing in Panama. The importance of these modes I would rank it in five. When you are decorating, communicating or selling something you need a juicy linguistic mode how to delivery the information. But first of all, it is really crucial finding the audience you are going to interact with. Using a good aural, because all you want it is the information to stay and be digested in people’s brain. I like the “visual”, because I am person with an excellent visual memory which I could get out of a website in less than a second if I do not see it organized. Gestural, as a website designer I see that I want this website to be a good resource for future generations. So, I need to get that click with my audience. And last but not less importance Spatial, in here is where you show your creativity in space administrator. A good way to find out before you open your website, it is standing at the door of your room, look from right to left what’s bother you? Whatever you see out of space take it out or find a new place for it the same on your website. Visit others website to have an idea of your taste. 7. Do you agree with Ball and Charlton when they claim "all writing is multimodal"? “All writing is multimodal” according to the definition from Ball and Charlton, yes, they are right. Everything that you write in this century has five or four of the modes. People use emojis, videos, links, pictures, text, voices on their regular texts everyday in personal life, at work or for business. I could say at my work the training they provided is amazing and they use these five important modes. They encourage us the same way from us to our patients. It is quality of communication. You want to delivery the message in the clearest way possible to anybody that you communicate with. Another example could be at college in all the classes I am taking. Coming to regular life, the way you receive an email from an clothing store or airlines they met Linguistic, aural, visual, gestural and spatial modes. 8. How do Ball and Charlton define "multimodal" writing? Ball and Charlton define “multimodal” writing as multiple + mode. Using different codes of communication to make meaning when you write. As mention previously there are five modes to a multimodal text: Linguistic, Aural, Visual, Gestural and Spatial.
