Website Design Project (Project 1) Guideline Overview For MIS 395 course project, students work individually to develop information portal sites (or web portals) using the Google Sites platform ( http://sites.google.com ) to synthesize information for a certain domain or area. The focus is on managing the contents of the web portal rather than web programming. An information portal site, or web portal, refer to a specially-designed website that brings information together from diverse sources in a uniform way (Wikipedia). These include personal portals, government portals, cultural portals (such as http://dp.la ), corporate portals, and many other domain-specific portals (such as real estate portals) that cover specific areas. Particularly, the domain-specific portals offer access to related companies and services in the domain or area; an example is a property portal that gives access to services such as estate agents, removal firm, and solicitors that offer conveyancing. For more information of the various portals, visit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal_site .
