Already week four in term number two

Friday, June 5th, 2009

OK, it has been a little while sine I made a post so I figured it was time for a little update. It is already week # 4 in my second term at Kaplan University and we only have 10 weeks per term. This term I have College Composition for IT majors and Foundations in Information Technology. These two classes may not be as fun to me as say my first term web design class was, but that is most likely because they are a lot like work and the web design was much more like ummm well fun to me. Writing is one of those things you do not think about much, until the day comes that the professor says “class you have an essay due in two weeks and here is your topic…..WRITE”. That is when it becomes something you start to ponder and for me when the writers block kicks in. The first essay we did was a narrative essay so was pretty much just telling a story from our own life, no real research was needed and you have very loose guidelines to go by. This one I have to start on now however is a process essay where you have to take the reader through the steps in a process. This was all fine to me and I had the great Idea, “hey since I know some about web design I can do a paper on making a website, maybe tell the differences in just a regular HTML/XHTML page and a Content Management System like I use on KStudent.com/x/ and ALMobileHome.com. Then when the professor said it needed to be two to three pages and not over 5 I had to rethink that quickly, so I will be telling how to make a very basic web-page for say family and friends to look at and keep up with what is new in your life (Kinda like a blog page). That I am hoping I can keep to the 2 -3 page limit he suggested and surely under the 5 he said do not go over period.
