Documentation Requirements

Documentation Requirements for your individual webpages. This will be added to and you will be notified in class of due dates. 

 

Feb. 17th

Week 4

Everyone must have their own individual page for documentation. All group work must be posted on everyone in the groups page separately. Sharing information between pages is ok, but it’s very important to have your own voice and your own space for documentation and observations. Treat it as a journal with visual aids. 

The minimum number of items you need to put on your webpage by Feb. 26th are listed below. You are being graded on documentation and this is how you are turning in your assignments, so putting these items up is a must to pass this class.

Get in the habit of taking photographs and writing something you have learned and observed every week!
