Learning Activity: Text and Graphics (Portfolio Component)

DETAILS: You are asked to develop a simple learning activity on a Web page that uses text and graphics, then hyperlink the Web page from the opening page of your Portfolio.

How a "learning activity" is defined (at least as far as this class is concerned) will be extremely loose. Ideally, this assignment would work off of one of the "Application of Theory Case Studies" produced in OTL 501. But we know that is not always practical.

The main point of the assignment is for participants to demonstrate the ability to produce material and display it on the Web, so the rubrics will focus more on the technology of development than the content of the activity. That said, points are given for stating a simple objective (or two or three) and accomplishing them.

You should make this assignment appropriate to your discipline (K-12, higher ed, corporate, HR, etc.).

If you have no other ideas on what to do, write a set of instructions on how to do something on the computer and use screen shots.
