If you want to custom style Gravity Forms, this is a pretty good tutorial and setup.

I wonder what this would look like as an integrated curricular/thematic element at VCU? I'm not a fan of the video style but certain elements about the whole site are worth noting/exploring.

It wasn't learning a certain program. The core thing was making sure that you never thought about the product from your point of view, but from somebody else's point of view. That's what prompted the [The Paradox of Empathy] post. "

"This past year, Davidson College introduced "A Domain of One's Own" to a portion of the student body through faculty willing to use it in their teaching. I saw two styles of 'Domains' rise out of the initiative. The first type of 'Domain' took audience into account, considering the implications of public scholarship, representation, and student agency. The second, in many ways, mirrored the traditional pedagogical structure by assigning papers or short answer assignments to be posted online through blogs.
