Chapter 3: Drafting

  1. Use the lists and outlines created by Ellen Haack for her paper on taste to suggest one or more designs for a website. For example, what sort of site structure is suggested by the list on pages 56-57? (That is, what pages would you include in the site, and how would you link them together?) Using this list or the outline on page 58, create a website map, like this:



    For each page, provide a page title and a brief description.

    Would the structure change based on the formal outline on page 68? Create another website map based on that outline.

  2. Is a website structured like an essay? Compare the website map you made based on Ellen's formal outline to her final essay draft. How are they similar? How are they different?

  3. Would you use the same outlining and/or drafting techniques described in Chapter 3 to create a website? Why or why not? Are there other techniques you might use, when creating a website, in addition to or instead of the ones described in your textbook?
