(30%) Short answers.
1. (10%) Explain the DOM in terms of its model and what it represents. Why is the DOM important? Show an
example of a DOM starting from the <body> tag along with a container <div>, followed by <h2>, <div>, two <a>
tags, and <p> tag, and its corresponding code.
DOM stands for Document Object Model. In the DOM, documents are modeled as objects. The
model encompasses both the structure of a document as well as behavior of a document and
the objects which it is composed. The DOM provides a virtual map (hierarchical representation)
of the web page that is currently on the browser.

3. (10%) Explain what is user-centered design (UCD)? What components does UCD focus on when designing a
website for users?
User-centered design (UCD) attempts to create positive user experiences by focusing on
usability goals, user characteristics, user environment, and workflow in designing a user
interface to meet user requirements. Usability includes effectiveness, efficiency, and
satisfaction.
For example, UCD considers users’ hardware (such as the keyboard and mouse), software,
computer experience, task knowledge (to facilitate the use of shortcuts and powerkeys), and
environmental characteristics (such as temperature and lighting) in designing a website.
It is also important to understand Accessibility issues when designed web pages for a website.
