Individual Web Site:

 Design a set of professional-looking web pages which describe your internship.  This will benefit future students seeking internship experiences, and will help friends, parents, university administrators and others to better understand the field of recreation, parks and tourism.  Your pages must include, but are not limited to, the following:

1.        Your name, the organization/company, semester you interned.

2.        Overview of organization, including its Mission Statement.

3.        Intern Responsibilities 

a.    Job description:  If official description is wordy, simplify it.

b.   Requirements and qualifications needed to fulfill this position.

c.    Benefits and Opportunities: include pay, room and board provided (if any), and other perks like recreational opportunities, networking, etc.

d.   Achievements:  new skill and knowledge areas, completion of special project, etc.

4.  Contact Information (for those seeking employment or information in the future)

5.  Links to related organizations and information

6.  Two to five photos which provide a feel for your internship site, including at least one of you in action.

 

WEB DESIGN INSRUCTIONS

We are using a WIKI system on the internet so that you can work from any computer at which you have internet access.  The address to use for logging in and editing your WIKI page is:

                    http://intern.rpts.tamu.edu/

Once there, click on the "Login/Create Account" link and follow the directions to create an account. You will not be able to create or edit any pages unless you enter a real email address and validate it. To validate your email address, create your account and login, then click on the "Preferences" link. From there, click on the "Confirm your email address" link and follow the instructions. You will quickly be sent a confirmation email, to which you will have to respond. Once that is done, your account will be ready for creating and editing pages.

To get started, make sure you are logged in and click on any link which will take you to the "Main Page". There are two demonstration pages entitled "Camp Balcones Springs" and "Holiday Inn Hotel and Suites Aggieland". Click on either of these pages to see the general format for your assignment. On these pages you can click on the "Edit" tab to view the code used to create the page. However, please do not make changes to the demo pages (or any other pages that are not yours). All editing activity will be monitored by Mrs. Scott, and unauthorized changes will have a negative impact on your grade.
