The Webzine was really hard to work on as a team. I think there should be more of a guideline of what needs to be done. Like a rubric for us to use as a guide. I felt kind of lost on what was supposed to be done. Perhaps that’s because I missed a lot of class because of illness, but my classmates were not able to help me when asked either. I feel like having guidelines up for what is expected of the webzine would help students know what is expected of them. And it would help us know what is left to do and how much better we could make the webzine.
If I were to do anything different I think I would work harder on making my classmates tell me what I can do. I would also read up on how to make the website more elaborate. I think our site could have been done that way, but I did not know how to do so.
As far as contributions for the Webzine go, I know that Sergio, Susy, and Erica E. did a lot of work. Not only did they work on their individual webzines, but they made the class site looked good and was advertised well. Erica, Liz and I worked on the proposals together and I know Liz and Erica worked hard on the fliers. Sergio made the slideshows and designed the homepage, and Susy did a lot of the design work as well. Without them, I don’t think our site would have made it as far as it did.
I also know Joe worked on not only his summary, but wrote one for Sergio as well.
I think everyone else kind of just worked on their own things. Honestly, I’m not sure what Ericka D., Chris, Ally, Corwin, Tiffani, and Summer did to contribute to it. I think they worked on their webtexts.
I also know that Ericka D had to deal with the passing of her mother during this semester. I give her major props for even continuing in the class, because I know if that had happened to me, I might have just given up on the semester. So, I feel like as a class, we should cut her some slack because of this situation in her life.
