Jerz: Writing for the Internet (EL 236)

Project 1 Workshop: Content Revision

Practice Writing skills. You may work in groups or alone to sharpen your revision skills, by working with a sample text I give you.

Today is about writing, not coding -- but as you've probably started to recognize, the writing and coding are very closely related. In the handouts section of J-Web, I have uploaded eight separate documents that are the first draft of the text for a website. The first handout on that list is a site map, which explains what document goes where. I have also roughed out a plan for the site. Note that I haven't spent any time at all on design. The point of the sample site is to sketch out where the contents belong, and to focus on what each separate page is dong.

Here are three different ways my computer can access the same content. What purpose does each serve for me? Which of the following are of any use for you?


  • C:\Documents and Settings\jerz\My Documents\Study Abroad
  • ftp://people.setonhill.edu/travel
  • http://people.setonhill.edu/jerz/travel/

What purpose does the "travel" at the end of the last two URLs serve?

The project was an insightful task that made me think as to what needed to be done to "spice" up the page.
