The aim of this term project is to reinforce concepts and skills learned in class, as well as to encourage reading, viewing, and thinking outside of the classroom environment.
All work should be done on loose sheets which allows them to be revised, updated and easily collated into the finished layout at the end of term.
You will use your computer lab time to adapt the hand-written material collated in this portfolio into a series of connected Web pages for your Internet Anthology
