In-Class Assignment, September 6th and 7th

Your mission for class on Wednesday and Thursday is to review how other schools have utilized the SNO (School Newspapers Online) service for their paper and determine what you like and do not like about their site.

Step One:
Go to the list of Michigan high schools and colleges that use SNO: SNO Michigan Users.  Pick three Michigan high schools from the list.

Step Two:
Visit the three sites you chose.  For each site, make a list of three things you think they did really well and two things you think they did not do well at all.  This can include layout, content, sections of the paper (sports, features, etc.), anything that catches your attention positively or negatively.

Step Three:
List your thoughts, along with the link to the sites you critiqued, on a Google Doc.  Share it with me at shierj@clintondaleschools.net.

Step Four:
On the same Google Doc, share at least two thoughts on what you think our newspaper site should looks like, based on what other schools are doing.

Step Five:
As the last thing on your Google Doc, tell me what section of the paper you would like to work on and identify at least one other person in the class that you know you can work with well.

This assignment is due by the end of class on Friday, September 8th.
