The process of developing a Web Folio for myself was the most enjoyable assignment in this course. It gave me an opportunity to use my creativity and express myself to a professional audience. Further, this site allows me to showcase my professional and writing experience to prospective employers.<\/p>\n<p>To start this process, I used the site that I created at the beginning of the term. Having some experience in web development, I am familiar with several website designing elements. So, I hoped for some more customization opportunities for my Web Folio. However, WordPress does not allow extensive customization on most themes. After trying numerous themes, I believe I found a theme that represents me professionally, and will be enjoyable for my viewers to interact with.<\/p>\n<p>Self-editing was the most difficult part of the process, as it was very time-consuming. I started with my oldest pieces of work and immediately noticed areas where I could improve. The major trend I saw was a lack of detail. In the latter portion of English 301, I improved the most in adding the necessary elements to my writing. So, self-editing to include more detail was simple. Overall, the self-editing process allowed me to see a gradual improvement in my writing skills throughout this semester.<\/p>\n<p>During the next month, I will be making a personal website to display my coding skills. This Web Folio is an excellent starting point, as the writing assignments can be used as content for my website.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Creating a Web Folio was the final assignment for English 301.
