My Reflection
I selected a
website format because I thought it would be the clearest way to convey my
information. I also appreciated the functions the website had to offer. One of
the main functions I used was creating as many tabs as needed. The tabs kept my
information both neat and well organized. I also enjoyed the accessibility to
structure each individual page differently to display my information. I found
many options available while creating my webpage that helped keep it unique,
and simple enough for me to utilize. One option I took advantage of was
uploading media videos from You Tube. I felt that incorporating the videos into
my webpage helped the reader to understand the area more vividly. I also included
a variety of photos. I felt that the visuals I chose were a clear
representation of the area, and subject being discussed.
I decided to organize my information using six different tabs. On my home tab I chose to only state the basic information needed to help my reader understand what the webpage itself was about without overwhelming them. I chose to create a history tab so my reader would have a clear idea of the place itself, and a basis of how it came to be. I followed my history tab with an attractions tab, a recreation tab, an opportunities tab, a tab for my process, and two separate tabs with my reflection and works cited page. I kept my reflection and works cited page separate since they weren't part of the overall appearance of my webpage. I ended the general tabs with the building a dock tab because I felt it was best suited after the opportunities tab; since it is an opportunity itself. I felt that each topic I discussed helped address the many different aspects of my place, the Iowa Great Lakes.
One thing I chose to actively address was to not overwhelm my reader with meaningless or excessive details. I felt that keeping my paragraphs shorter while at the same time making clear what the webpage was about, made the overall objective more effective, and less confusing. I also focused on correcting grammatical errors, as well as eliminating run-on sentences.
