NORTH PAULDING HIGH SCHOOL

Long-Term Project
for Web & Digital Design Pathway
CTAE DEPARTMENT WEBSITE AND PROMOTIONAL MATERIALS
The long-term project for the Web and Digital Media Pathway is the development of promotional materials for the
North Paulding High School Career and Technology Department. Students will work in teams to complete a web
page for each pathway offered at the school and each CTSO at the school.
The entire web site will include pathway information for 13 pathways and an overview of CTAE. The Digital Media
Students will create a promotional video for the pathways that will be embedded into the main page of the site.
The process of the long-term project will be conducted as follows:
1. The entire class will work together to plan the site, set styles for the site, and develop a navigation plan to
ensure site consistency.
2. Students will then be divided into teams to storyboard their individual pages and present them to the class
and pathway teacher for input and approval.
3. Students will use their Digital Media skills to take pictures and design graphics for the site.
4. One project leader will combine all pages into a single site.
5. Students will then create the following print materials for their pathway:
a. Brochure
b. Poster
c. Flyer for Middle School Audience
d. Flyer for Parents and Other Stakeholders
Promotional materials will be used at Open House, the Reality Fair, middle school information sessions, and parent
information sessions conducted by the school.
