Watch the video below on the anatomy of a website (elements that are included and common in most website design). Make sure you are logged in under your name and not another student's name.
The elements that the video discusses are:
- Header and Navigation
- Call to Action
- Primary Content
- Secondary/Tertiary Content
- Sidebar
- Footer
PART TWO OF TWO
Take a screen shot (Mac) (Windows) showing at least one good example for each element (you can use more than one website for different elements). Using PowerPoint or Google Slides, upload your screenshots and identify and label the elements.

Justify why you think the examples you selected are effective. This can be explained in one paragraph including all the elements, or in separate short sentences for each element.
Once you have completed the assignment, you can share the assignment and make sure to title it "Exploring Website Elements."
Note: You may need more than one slide to complete this assignment.
