Photographs

We took headshots of every student in the class. We were fortunate enough to have Vivian, a fine arts major, in out class. She had access to the photography studios in P building, and she snapped a few shots of each of us so we could pick the best ones. However, if no one like this exists in your class, an SFCC photography instucter would probably be happy to assist. P-125 is a good place to start; just tell the faculty member what you need.

Website Construction in Groups

We utilized our first class period almost soley devoted to the class website to review past class websites. We identified things we liked and disliked. Liked: student pictures with names attached, a digital/"computeresque" style template or webpage layout. Disliked: the idea of putting personal emails under "contact us."

The class also broke into several groups that were assigned to specific areas of the class website. The groups are: Contact us/this how-to blog, Website template design, Mission statement, Photography (one person), Editorial (for posted papers), and Who we are.

Mission Statement

Week 1:

After a class period of brainstorming they came up with a constitution style mission statement. The group wanted an element of creativity not just a formal paragraph. The outline is completed and further editing will occur later.

How To...

The above posts contain information about how we built our class website. It is a week by week journal of how our class created our website!
