1. Christ In Me Ministries Conceptual Model Presented By: Nicole Burrell, Erica Moore, Kimberly Sledge

2. System Overview The purpose of this project is to create a web presence for members and associates of Christ In Me Ministries. The ministry spreads the Word of God to Christians and non-Christians alike. Currently, the members communicate by e-mail. Their goal is to further the growth of the Loving Charity Prayer Band #2. This website will serve as a central point of contact, containing monthly newsletters, sermons, daily proverbs, and poems. It will provide the historical background of the ministry and The Loving Charity Prayer Band #2. The site will also support product expansion, outreach programs, and possible links to the associated organization.

3. Lexicon Christ In Me Ministries: This is the identity of minister Charles A. Mason in Christ. It describes his goal which is uplifting the name of Christ and spreading the gospel by sharing the Word of God through singing, preaching, and teaching.

11. Heuristic Evaluation Results

12. Affordances, Mappings & Constraints Pros: –Lots of helpful affordances: obvious links, easy-to-use order form, and simple prayer request form –Object appearance and distribution helps to identify the constraints of the page through a clear visualization of the page layout Cons: –Slight change on the background color could also be helpful in the differentiation between the different parts of the layout –Consider putting the links across the top of the page

14. Layout Pros: –Clear and consistent with the expectations of users accustomed to web navigation, and very easy to understand and navigate for those with little or no experience with web navigation –Excellent Layout!

15. Color Pros: –Color combination easy to read and it gives some solemnity to the Web Page Cons: –Might want to try more colors to keep readers attention –Background color too dark

16. Tone & Etiquette Pros: –Very formal throughout –Good for site since it is a religious site –Down to earth slightly formal tone created the perfect ambiance for this subject matter
