Further, insteadof being a single assignment with an optional resubmit, the project was now broken into fivephases: 1. Creation of a homepage and a brief biography 2. Creation of the six pages for the Six Tools, with reflection on each tool’s meaning, personal goals, and self-assessment 3. Addition of electronic artifacts to each of the six pages and updated self-assessment 4. Creation of page specifically written for one’s academic advisor 5.
