I had an interesting experience creating my web folio. At first, I thought that I would use this opportunity to create my professional web presence. Then, as I started the process, I realized that it would not be possible to represent myself in the way that I want to until I have embarked on my next project.<\/p>\n
This fall, I will create a significant amount of content for my YouTube channel. This work will develop both my skill set and portfolio in a way that will significantly impact the type of branding and copy that I will use on my website.<\/p>\n
For this reason, creating my web folio this time around felt like a practice exercise. I suppose that is what it is meant to be, and I did learn a few things regardless: I reinforced my skill set with regards to page creation and laying out a website; I came to understand how coursework can be incorporated into a professional portfolio; and I discovered, through the writing of them, the value of including descriptions with each sample work that I provide.<\/p>\n
I must add, however, that certain requirements of the web folio assignment were inconsistent with what I\u2019ve noticed online lately. For example, students were required to create a page for the link to their LinkedIn profile when these days, social media profile links are normally integrated as plugins or hyperlinked icons right on the homepage. This is how I would incorporate them into my professional website.<\/p>\n
Despite this, I\u2019m glad to have had the opportunity to complete this assignment. When I create my professional online presence, I believe that having made a web folio for English 301 will only enhance the success I experience with that page. Until then, the content found here will remain on my UBC blogs site.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
