Speech Pathology and Audiology website : media development : an honors thesis (HONRS 499)

The Internet has recently become a primary resource for accessing information, which requires professionals in any field to maintain attractive, informative, and userfriendly web-spaces. The Department of Speech-Language Pathology and Audiology is one of Ball State University's hidden treasures as the program exceeds national requirements and provides students with phenomenal training for the profession. The department's current website provides basic information regarding academic programs and clinical services, but we feel that it needs to be updated in both content and design. Our thesis is intended to provide more information and resources that are easily accessible to current and prospective students, faculty, and the general public.Our group conferred with our advisor and members of the department to ascertain the functions of the website, outlined a more user-friendly configuration, and created an attractive and distinctive webpage design. The finished project is a complete website proposal, including appropriate links, for the university web coordinators and the department chair to consider during the future revision of the department's website.Honors CollegeThesis (B.?.
