by | posted in: Design, WRCT 200 | 0

This exercise will help you get a sense of what different portfolios look like, and may give you ideas for your own.

  • Think about what criteria you would use to evaluate a website.
  • Explore the personal websites assigned to your group (see our Google Drive folder).
  • Debate with your group until you agree about how to answer the following questions: (1) What is one feature of a well-designed portfolio? (2) What is one thing we should all watch out for when designing portfolios in our class? (3) What is one question you have about the portfolios you will create this semester?
