The final task remaining to complete the first project is to perform a review of the drafts that you have written. I'd like you to ask yourself some questions about your projects, but first, take a look at some of the drafts so far. Remember the course is based on development, so the expecatitons for individual projects varies. These few seemed to handle the assignmentÑespecially the task of mixing original analysis with relevant external linksÑquite well.

First, check out

1) How well is the topic focussed? What is the project's have an "angle"? Can you think of ways to sharpen the focus?

2) What kind of analysis does the project provide. Is the thinking original?

3) Does the analysis deal with the issues from more than one perspective? What objections can you find to the thinking?

4)How well is the analysis organized. Do the sections make sense in terms of each other and also can they stand alone? Do they depend on information that is not available to the reader?

5) How are the links implemented? Are they explained clearly?

6) Are the materials that are linked to relevant. Which ones seem out of place?

What about the layout of the projects? Is it interesting? What kinds of elements would you add to make the design more exciting, or more clear?

7) Finally, check over all of the document for spelling or mechanical errors.

When you have finished the review of your own project and looked at your fellow students' work you can revise your project for publication.
