Our last assignment for ENGL 301 this semester is to make a web folio. Since I am about to apply for a co-op job, I decided to design a web folio that emphasizes my marketable skills. I used my 301 blog site as the base of my web folio, made changes to the existing pages, and added some new pages and posts. In the process of making my web folio, I realized that it is very important to make my web folio look beautiful, concise, and attractive at the same time. So I made some designs for my web folio. On the cover of the web folio, I used my own photos for decoration and added a music player in the lower right corner, so that all viewers who enter my web folio can enjoy music and read my web folio at the same time. In addition, I added a short introduction to each page. This allows the audience to understand the contents of my attached file first, and then decide whether to download it and read it carefully.
Although the process of making a web folio is not very complicated, for me, this learning process made me realize the importance of showing my abilities in the job search process. And when we design content for others to watch, we must think from the perspective of users and consider what kind of experience they would prefer. For me, this is a very precious learning opportunity.
