I chose to include this piece because it was the first major project of the class, as well as the first time that I have worked on a research based project. Through the first few drafts I struggled quite a bit with this assignment, but as I progressed through the course I was able to use the feedback I received along with extra information I gleaned from external sources to revise my work. I think this document is an excellent example of my growth through the experience of this course.

I chose to include this piece because it functions as an example of my collaborative work. Alongside one of my peers, I analyzed a verbal presentation given by Florida States Digital Studio Staff, noted the crucial information, and compiled it into a written format. This work was shared with my classmates in preparation for the Portfolio project and has served as a guide for the logistics and specifications of the assignment.
