The final portfolio consists of the three projects you have
completed for class, all significantly revised from peer comments
and my written responses. To revise a document means to rethink,
reconsider, rework, and rewrite the text to the best of your
ability. It also means that you have considered the rhetorical
purpose for the document and determined the best way to present
that document according to its purpose. Revision does include
editing, but it does not equal editing.
For the last two weeks of the semester, you will engage in
revising your three documents so that they will serve as representations
of your best work for the class. You may ask questions, ask
for feedback from me and from your peers, as well as spend time
in class working on your assignments.
Your portfolio is due on Saturday, December 14th at
5pm, the time and date determined from class consensus.
Your portfolio will be submitted via the web.
Project #2 will serve as the weblink for the other two projects
in your portfolio. This means that on your revised
individual website (Project #2), you should provide links to
Project #1 and Project #3.
Project #1 will be a link to your revised
analytical essay is html, ms word, or pdf format.
Project #3 should link to your group's revised
contribution to the collaborative website. The following are
the links to the specific segments of each site:

that email.
You also need to e-mail your information for project #3 to
