WPG Tasks 2 and 3

WPG Task #2
My portfolio will be a best work portfolio that will display all of the previous documents that I have edited and created. I am only half way through my internship and I already have five or six large projects. Since my internship is a little bit different in being that I am not a Professional Writing major, I want to show the broad range of skills I've learned and basic concepts I have learned about being a Professional Writing major through the course of work in my internship. I will be including all of the documents I have stated already in the previous posts. I'm not sure but I don't think I should have a goal of showing how knowledgable I am about all of the things I've been doing: I have just started this process this semester and can only expect to understand a broad range of topics and tasks that can be taught in a semester of Professional Writing instead of four years like many of the other majors. Again, I wrote all of the different sections of the web portfolio in the "Internal Portfolio" as in stating the different classes I've taken, the pictures that inspire me, the projects, etc.
Task #3
Like I said earlier, I want to show that I have gained some hands-on knowledge of different tasks. I touched on some of my goals in the "Internal Portfolio" again, but I have decided not to include other classes with my writing process. I want to show my progress through all of the projects. I am going to restate what I want to do within my portfolio though
1. An introduction page for what to expect in the portfolio, my purpose (to show that I've engaged and worked with others in producing the best documents under certain amounts of time), my goals (to show that I have gained some initial PWE knowledge), how to navigate through the webpage, and briefly discuss how I achieved my goals
2. A conclusion that restates what I achieved and how I achieved it
3. Separate the writing into processes with reflections that intervene between the drafts (with the help of the blog reflections I have been writing)
4. Design an easy, yet creative way to navigate through the pages and display links
5. Include an inspiration page with pictures of my daughter, fiance, nature, passions, my home, etc. that keep me grounded and motivated
6. Include an about me section
7. Inventory of classes (not sure if this fits with my new goals)
