Peer Review

I gave Aamir's profile a 5/6  this was because he completed most of the tasks very well however in some cases he wrote too little or even didn't write anything at all, this was the only thing he needed to work on. he needs to add more detail and include more pros and cons in describing a portfolio.

Investigating different Software Options

The first option I took a look at was the HTML one. I think that this is not a good option because, it is far from user friendly. It consists of too many digits and I found this very complicated. However, if you are used to working with lots of digits, numbers, symbols etc than it may be a good option as it gives you a simple webpage as a result.


The second Software Option was 'FrontPage'. This option, in my opinion, is better than HTML. This is because it uses the familiar Microsoft menus and toolbar therefore making it easy to learn and more user-friendly. also, it comes equipped with many pre-designed web page templates. On the other hand, FrontPage is not the best Software available because, some features are specific to the Microsoft platform only, it doesn't produce the code as cleanly as Dreamweaver and it lacks interactive development tools found in other platforms such as WordPress or Dreamweaver.


The last option I looked at was 'Dreamweaver'. This option is very good because the program is designed to work with entire folders and directories of web pages, images, scripts, and media, not just simply creating a 'boring' webpage. Also, Dreamweaver has its own tools to upload and publish your files, no external FTP program is necessary. Some disadvantages include, Dreamweaver isn't for people who just want to create a small webpage or a website with only a few pages, also, it is not the simplest software around.


I think the best option was Dreamweaver, this is because it was the simplest and it seemed as though it was the easiest to use.I think the worst was HTML as i found it very confusing and would not be able to create a webpage using that software.
