After finishing my last assignment for Unit 4, I wrote up a reflection on my thoughts and experience for creating my web folio.

Website Design

Thinking about how I would change the design of my site to better suit being a Web Folio was an interesting process. I decided to pick a more simple design, that took into account the F-shaped reading pattern noted in Technical Communications by John Lannon. I wanted to keep my design simple and barebones, to reflect myself and my goals, and also to allow ease of access and navigation.

Writing Content

The web folio is a tool to show off my portfolio and my work experience. Thus, I wanted to structure the site similarly to a resume, but also introduce my interests and hobbies. I included my extra-curricular activities, to show off myself, in addition to already showing my professional interests in biochemistry and computer science

Revision of Previous Work

The web folio shows off the work done within ENGL 301 as a whole. I wanted to show my very best work, thus I took a long period of time to revise each assignment based on both instructor feedback, as well as the new things I had learned since enrolling in the course. Having the time to look back and realize the mistakes I had previously made really emphasized how much I had grown throughout my time within the course.
