What is it?
I created a new subdomain for my final project. I made a field hockey website. I posted tutorials of different skills and I incorporated links for those to explore more about the sport and different teams. This website is not just about field hockey, but it is about young girls finding a new passion. I discovered the sport at such an old age, I want to inspire people that it is never too late to try something new. I created a more pink and cute appearing website, rather than a sport focused, to appeal to all people. Not just athletes, but all people looking to discover something new.
Accessibility
I provided alt text for each image on my website. There were only two images, however I made sure to incorporate it. I also used heading structure for my posts and pages to ensure it was clear as to what was being introduced and what ideas meshed together. I provided descriptive link text for each of my links so my audience knows what they are clicking on. I also ensured each video and picture were high in quality, with proper lighting and clear visibility. For each of my tutorials, I wrote subtitles so those who cannot listen, can read!
Media, Source Credit, Copyright
All of the work provided was my own work, except for one youtube video I provided of the UNC and Northwestern field hockey teams. I created my own copyright located at the footer of the website. I acknowledged my ownership of the work as of the year 2024. By providing “All Rights Reserved,” I am asserting full rights over the content as others cannot use, reproduce, or distribute this material without permission. I chose my copyright license to look like this because I want to ensure if these videos are used for any purpose, that I am given credit for the hard work I put into them. I also attributed credit to the NCAA for the film of the field hockey game. I embedded videos I posted through Youtube to ensure proper visibility and accessibility.
Information Accuracy
The information provided is all accurate. I can attribute my knowledge to five years of the game and many lessons on each of these skills. The websites and links I embedded were all used at least once in my life, as I know the information to go with them are correct and useful.
AI
I only used AI for one thing: my script for the introduction of my video. To engage my audience and create a fun beginning, I used AI to form my script. Other than that, AI was not used.
My Process
I went through UMW domains to build another domain. I went through the same process as when I created my subdomain under this class, however I based it around field hockey. I installed WordPress as I feel it is visually pleasing and organized. I am also comfortable with it. After then installation, I created my header, site icon, and favicon to personalize it and differentiate it from my other site, even though they give off similar ideas. By creating a pink and positive background, it can appeal to everybody, even those who do not play sports. I then, cleaned up my site by removing the sample pages, the random information, and the access pages I did not need. After that, I created my footer with my homepage and my About me page. Finally, I created the tutorials and created many blog posts along with including links in my “links” page. I used Imovie to create and edit these videos and posted them to YouTube in order to share them.
