Today, I presented the wireframe prototype and the updated website for my portfolio. The feedback highlighted that the current wireframe is somewhat confusing and could become problematic for future design work. I was advised to refine the wireframe and create an interactive prototype, seeking feedback from technical teachers to ensure clarity and functionality. Regarding the updated portfolio, it was noted that the site appears empty and requires additional content. I need to enrich the pages with more detailed explanations of learning outcomes and enhance the design with more CSS styling. For the contact page, it was suggested to replace the email and phone number with a contact form, allowing users to reach out directly through the website. This feedback underscores the importance of iterative improvements and comprehensive input from multiple teachers to refine both the design and content of the portfolio. Moving forward, I will focus on making the necessary updates and seek further feedback to ensure the portfolio is both visually appealing and content-rich.

Today, I received valuable feedback on my portfolio. I was advised to use subheadings and bullet points for better readability, and to add left and right margins to paragraphs. Including all research with links and references was also recommended. For the nav bar, I should be cautious with red as it can imply danger. To show changes, I need to include before-and-after screenshots and describe the feedback. Maintaining design consistency with shapes across all pages was suggested, and I should ensure text alignment for a unified look. To fill empty space, enlarging the text is a good strategy. Additionally, I need to research popups and slideshows, avoiding click-through slideshows. Lastly, experimenting with colors for the nav bar and footer to find more suitable options was recommended. I will use this feedback to enhance my portfolio.

I presented my updated portfolio and the new forums page, which was a great addition. For the project page, I need to add more content as it is currently too empty. It was suggested to keep updating the design in Figma, as it's easier to make changes there before coding. The documentation has a good start but needs more detailed content on learning outcomes, with clear explanations and proof. Regarding the Pokémon challenge, I was advised to add more detail to improve its quality. Additionally, I should conduct extensive research on unfamiliar topics to enhance my work and knowledge.

Today's feedback on the website redesign was insightful and constructive. The new design was generally well-received, noted for its improvement over the previous version. However, there are a few key areas for enhancement: Remove Animation on Portfolio Pictures: The moving animation on the portfolio images was distracting, and its removal is recommended for a cleaner, more professional look. Project Page Button Behavior: Ensure that when the project page button is clicked, it opens in a new tab for better user navigation. Key Frames for Portfolio Pages: Consider adding key frames for the opening animation of portfolio pages, providing a smoother and more appealing transition. Picture Click Functionality: Adjust the images so that clicking on them reveals the learning outcome content. Currently, the layout appears cramped, and this change should improve clarity and user experience.

To implement the feedback received, I removed the animation on Portfolio Pictures: but left it on the home and about page because of personal preference. I imlemented that when the button is pressed on the project page, it opens in a New Tab. I also ensured that each image in the portfolio has an associated click event to reveal content. I used JavaScript to handle the click event, modifying the DOM to display the learning outcomes. I also implemented that when the portfolio pages are opened; they float in to match the rest of the animations in my website.

Today's feedback on my portfolio was quite insightful and pointed out several areas for improvement. Firstly, making the portfolio logo clickable to return to the home page is a great usability enhancement that I overlooked. This simple navigation feature will improve the user experience significantly. Additionally, adding margins to the feedback, technical skills, and professional skills pages will enhance readability by preventing text from appearing too cramped. Another important point was to remove the moving effects on pictures across every page, as it was deemed excessive and potentially distracting. Simplifying these elements will create a cleaner and more professional look. Lastly, fixing the line height on the about me page and better utilizing space will make the content more legible and visually appealing.

Based on today's feedback, I should prioritize placing learning outcomes at the top of the popup/modal page on professional and technical pages. Additionally, I should consider placing pictures to the side for better preference alignment. Regarding the use of IDs on the tech, feedback, and professional skills page, a comment should be placed explaining why it is used would be helpful. When presenting multiple examples, I should consider using block text formatting. Lastly, I should adjust text alignment to either left or right for improved readability on these pages, avoiding center alignment.

I have implemented some of this feedback ensuring the learning outcomes are displayed prominently at the top of each modal pop up. I have provided a comment explaining why the id's are currently not being used for the modals. i have assess the current text alignment (centered) on the pages in question. and I have adjusted text alignment to left instead, based on readability principles and user feedback.
