For your last project for the course, you will construct a
web site that covers the basic concepts and ideas covered in
English 306. This web site is intended to be a primer, of sorts,
for next semester's English 306 class, and eventually, the site
could become an expanded resource for all Professional Writing
students.
This project will be collaborative, meaning you will be working
in teams with other students. The teams will be organized according
to interests, and the work for the project will be divided accordingly
among the teams.
I envision there to be approximately 5-6 teams, each with about
3 students. One team will be devoted to the design of the website,
meaning that this team will design the site, the pages for the
site, and set these pages up in preparation for content. The
other groups will be responsible for developing the content
for these pages. These groups will develop and collect information
about different ideas in the class that will be useful for future
Professional Writing students. This information should come
from the texts of the class, as well as outside web sources
and other classes in the Professional Writing program.
We will develop the topics for these teams in class, but here
are some preliminary suggestions:
