🎯 Learning Intention

I will evaluate how imagery and navigation influence digital design.

✅ Success Criteria

• [ ] I can critique how images support (or distract from) content
• [ ] I can identify clear vs. confusing navigation in websites

🌍 Why this matters

Images create emotional impact, and navigation determines whether users can actually find what they need. Together, they decide if a website feels engaging or frustrating.

🔓 Warm-Up (Tech Journal • 5 min)

Prompt: Think of the last time you got lost on a website. What went wrong?

📚 Vocabulary (post to board/slide)

• Navigation — menus, links, and pathways through a site
• Sitemap — the structure of how pages are connected
• Call-to-Action (CTA) — a button or link designed to prompt an action (e.g., “Sign Up”)
• Hero Image — a large, impactful image at the top of a page

🧭 Agenda (45–50 min)

1) Mini-Lesson: Imagery & Navigation in Action (10 min)

• Show two ecommerce homepages:
  • Good example: Amazon (clear nav bar, product images support content).
  • Poor example: small/local ecommerce site with cluttered navigation or irrelevant images.
