Notes:
These are a work in progress to figure out best content structure. One follows the original content structure while the second explores a more task oriented structure. I can continue to build it out on my account then copy and paste it over once content structure and design are close to being finished.
Same content structure as original site

Site Map Organization #1
this organization groups together navigation by important readings & resources, information and tips for correspondences the team will send, tips on creating an ePortfolio, and an example of each part of the recommendation report.
pros:
groups by task
reduces digging through information on each page
reduces cognitive load for user
cons:
students may be tempted to skip over certain key sections and just use the example of full recommendation report
