What Makes a Webpage Successful?
Check out the student webpages off of the course page and at http://www.reed.edu/reed/users/students.html
Which pages do you like the best and why? Email the class (Eng201-S01) a list of things you think you should do and not do in a webpage.
Since you will need to make a web version of your final paper, the folks from CUS will be teaching you on Thursday how to write your own webpage. (Don't worry--it's easy.) When you are finished you should post it in the usual location for student webpages and email me the web address (they will be able to help you do this). Your webpage should include the following:
1. Your name and any information about yourself that you find relevant2. A link to the English 201 class webpage
