D#7 HW# 4.1: Howe Writing Initiative : Teaching Team Writing - 0 views

    • Alex Portela
       
      This is a good comparable site to part of our team writing text. Several factors like editing and proofreading relate more to the details in part 2 chapter 6 in revising team member's work. In relation to part one it does express organization from the beginning and accountability. We have to set deadlines and brainstorm how to structure collaboration for this assignment.
  • Team writing makes invention strategies public and explicit (brainstorming, listing, outlining). Team writing encourages multiple perspectives and multiple drafts. Team writing demands revision, analysis of revision strategies, and makes revision public and explicit. Team writing focuses on the presentation of the final product, encouraging editing and proofreading. Team writing allows writers to recognize differences in style, tone, organization among different writers. Team writing forces writers to reflect on their own and others' strengths, weaknesses, and individual styles and processes of writing. Team writing demands analysis of rhetorical and stylistic choices.
  • FACTORS in SUCCESSFUL TEAM WRITING the degree to which goals are clearly articulated and shared the degree of openness and mutual respect among group members the degree of control writers have over the text the degree to which writers can respond to others who may modify the text the way credit (directly or indirectly) is given an agreed-upon procedure for responding to work in process and for revising/editing
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • Set deadlines for drafts; devote one whole team meeting to responses/revision of drafts. Develop, as a team, a series of questions for each reader to ask about other writers' drafts; decide, as a team, what you want to look for in each writer's draft Before distributing drafts to the team, each writer should provide a cover letter with the draft, explaining what she/he tried to accomplish, pointing out strengths/weaknesses, and asking readers specific questions about problem areas. Write back to each writer and be prepared to discuss your responses. Provide both positive and negative feedback to writers. Be descriptive, pointing to particular sections or sentences, providing suggestions for revision and explanations of those changes.
  • As the team projects progress, ask students to monitor their progress in writing, by submitting weekly minutes, for example.
  • PLANS FOR COMPLETION What tasks are left to do? How have you divided/assigned them? What do you still need to find? Do you have enough/too much material for your presentation? TEAM PROCESS Describe the way your team is working together. How have you organized the work? Division of tasks? Lead writer? Lead researcher? Lead presenter? Any problems in the team process?

      Again another quality example of the right way to do things and the wrong way which is how I learn best. If I can compare something the wrong was to the right way then I find I create less errors. 
    • julian serventi
       
      Because this site is somewhat interactive, it allows you to explore different aspects of creating instructions. For the most part you want to keep your instructions clear and create a somewhat demanding tone.
  •  
    Another simplistic site, but great tips for wording. Also some interactive quizzes after the instructions.

    This will help me in the first project because I can easily refer to their examples and decide if my instructions are correct or not. I like that there is user interaction with this website, it keeps me engaged, rather than just reading text.
  •  
    In the following list, click to put a tick beside the statement if you think it's important when writing instructions - leave it blank if you don't (you can click again in the box to change your mind). This is the form of the verb which tells you to do something.

    On this website it showed various techniques in achieving balance in web design. It explained various methods such as the six visual elemnts of color, line, shape, texture, tone, and volume. It also goes in depth about varous techniques like size various, variety, visual effects, and unity that can help with accomplishing visual balance to any design.

    • Alex Portela
       
      The book describes on page 56 that there are a variety of contrast techniques. Color is a noticeable contrast but we learn that this is only part of many methods. This site gives a variety of different techniques like color, size, shape, and position.

    This was my favorite page found on my search for content related to chapter three of basics of design. This site gives a great outline of what the design principle contrast is and how to properly use it in page design. It describes and shows examples of positional, shape, color, and size contrast. This was a wonderful site that supported and reinforced examples right out of the book. I really loved the great and creative sites that it had in it's examples and I felt inspired to aim for design of that quality.
  •  
    Summary: Contrast is usually kept simple, like color for the beginners but there are other elements to consider when it comes to contrast in any design. The first thing that most of learn in color contrast and the obvious of color is the white and black which is okay but there are other ways to use color to grab attention as the examples under color with explain. Next to color that grabs attention is size, the bigger the better as the writer explains because it shows that something is important and will draw the read to read the rest. Then we have shape contrast which gives a different feel to make other things notable cause no one likes to see a plain and boring design. Finally there is positional contrast that makes hierarchy standout by using different alignments. I found this website to the be the best because it touch on everything in the reading and gave examples to show what is meant on each topic. 
  •  
    Here is an article from the Webdesigners Depot. It explains various types of contrast (color, shape, size, etc.) and gives real life examples from various webpages across the internet.

EG-D#4 HW#1-Balance - 0 views

  •  
    A website that has Balance. Good use of outlined frames and balances well. The positioning of the frames, some in front of others helps to achieve the balance. Having the title frame out in front helps balance the smaller frames on the left with the larger one on the right.
