For Spring 2009

To be successful in this class, pay attention in class. Everything you need to know is gone over in class and if acknowledged properly, shouldn't take that much work outside of class. The client project is the most important part of the class. Make sure you choose people who you can get al0ng and have fun with. The project will get very boring very fast if you don't enjoy working with your peers. Further, make sure to distribute work evenly and make sure everything is running smoothly. The material covered in the class will help you become more acquainted with writing in the business world such as resumes, cover letters, follow-up letters etc. The technology used will help you distribute this information and become more aligned with the technologies we will use in the future. This was the most challenging for me. If you have any questions dealing with portfolios, blogs, or any other computer-based utility, please ask your teacher. She will most definitely help you as much as she can and answer any questions you have. If neither of you can figure it out, she will be understanding. To make the most of the class, picture yourself in a couple years when you might actually be using this information and the writing processes.
