There have been few assignments that I’ve received in my college career that excited me in any positive way prior and during their process, but these hypertexts have definitely been part of that group. I think it could have been due to the fact that I’ve been trained in HTML and became excited at the opportunity of a project where I could express myself through my abilities.

The personal hypertext was a fun assignment for me because I was able to share with other people my passion and hobby for glass art. It wasn’t challenging and it was fun to get back to working with HTML from not touching it for over a year. This project served as a good primer for my Podcast hypertext.

The Podcast hypertext was both fun and extremely stressful for me. I was to interview Phil Siegel for the video, but his availability was set for the Thursday before the Podcast was due. I was able to finish the interview and get home by 2 a.m. and bust out whatever I could for the hypertext. I was able to finish, but passed out and did not submit it until 4 hours after it was “due” and was marked late….Even though my assignment was finished and unmodified before the page was even supposed to be submitted, so I do not agree with my deduction for merely submitting the page at a later hour.

The analytical hypertext is still in progress and I will update a post accordingly with my reflection on that.

All in all, I’ve had a good experience working with these Hypertexts for this class and would recommend friends who are interested in both expanding their HTML skills while exploring internet-writing to take this course.
