The creation of a Web Folio was a great final assignment to summarize the course and tie up all loose ends. I enjoyed seeing all of the work that I have done this semester come together into an interactive and user friendly interface. It allowed for a neat and tidy presentation of a lot of assignments and a lot of hard work that has been put in. Overall it was a very positive experience for me and very satisfying to see the final product come out as I wanted.
I personally found that the Web Folio helped me to see what I had learned throughout the course. It compiled everything into a single location and allowed me to see all of my assignments at once giving a better overview of the skills that I have learned. It also allowed me to view my progress and how my writing has changed over the course of the semester. It showed me exactly what I have gained from this course over just three short months.
The most difficult part of creating a Web Folio for me was the design. GettingĀ the Web Folio to come out looking how I had envisioned was quite difficult and took a lot of small adjustments and editing. One process that I found really helped me in creating the final product was creating a story board to help my ideas flow into the Web Folio. The story board provided me with a basis for the design and allowed me to slowly add details and make adjustments until it was perfect.
I designed my web folio to be an easy to navigate and well rounded display of who I am as a writer and as a person. I believe it allows a visitor to see a good sampling of the types of writing and assignments that I am capable of producing as well as gives them a great deal of personal information about me through the means of my resume and application package. I hope that I have achieved these goals and that my Web Folio if found interesting by those who happen to stumble across it.
