Revise one of your previous projects with a new vision of what you want to do.

By "ReVision," I don't mean a revision that fixes up a previous project with lots of local corrections and improvements.

Instead, ReVision entails a global transformation in the idea or strategy you pursue in the project, which will require changes throughout. This might be a better, more complete vision of what the original assignment asked for, or it might be a further goal or intention for the project.

Global Transformations

Global transformations for Web-based projects might include the following:

• a better, fuller realization of the intentions of the original assignment (if you missed it the first time)
• a different, more specific audience for the site
• a new structure and navigation scheme for the site that better realizes your purpose and vision (see Duluth Lynchings, for example)

Printout and Commentary

Your printout/commentary of the ReVision should therefore be specific about the new idea or vision and how it guided the various changes you made.

Keep the Original

Be sure to leave the original version of the project posted on the Web in its own folder.

Post the ReVision Project to the Web in the folder "revision." When you send the URL of the ReVision to the Webx discussion, also include a link to the original in its own folder on the Web.

If you revise a print project, please turn in a hardcopy of the revised document as well as the original copy with my comments and markings. Highlight the words, phrases and passages that are new.
