Design Evaluation Assignment Instructions
Overview
Select two web pages. One of the pages should be a page that you consider to be a good design. The other page should be one that you consider to be a poor design. Indicate why or why not each page represents a good or poor design. [Note: There is no right or wrong answer at this point. We will return to this exercise after you have completed several modules and compare your initial impressions with your impressions after having studied design guidelines.]
Instructions

- Below the screen shot, describe why you consider it to be a poor design, as well as its probable effect on the user. List a minimum of three reasons why it is a poor design and at least three likely outcomes of this poor design on usability.
- Next, take a screen shot of the web page that you believe is a good design and paste it into the same Word document.
- Below the screen shot, describe why you consider it to be a good design, as well as its probable effect on the user. List a minimum of three reasons why it is a good design and at least three user effects.
