We will be using Claris Home Page 3.0 to design your web pages. You need to decide how you are going to present your information (will you write text, include a list of pertinent facts, present pictures or statistics, etc.?).

Remember to think about graphics for your web page. If you search the internet, keep an eye out for interesting, appropriate graphics to enhance you page.

Beware the information you find on the internet: some of the information is posted by regular ordinary people, and may not be accurate.

For every three internet sources, you need to have one other source that corroborates the information. Remember to include journal articles (Galileo is a good source; I have access to some medical journals if you need more info).
