Summer in the City - WordPress

Your WordPress site acts as the sole vehicle for the documentation of your city field study.

your field study plan
weekly entries of text
photos
mapping - a Google Map will be integrated into your site for mapping purposes, (popup detail bubbles as you mouse over your city’s pinpointed locations).
may also include sound

You will are also review the WordPress sites of other students in the program and comment on at least two sites each week.

make connections between what you are experiencing/perceiving and the course readings
write frequently, at least 2 times per week if not more. Write when impressions are fresh. If you are not near a computer keep a paper journal then type up your notes later.
capture the experience of a place with images and audio
interact what other students' journals. They are going through a similar experience, how are they approaching their journal and the academic challenges of the course?
Your site is public. You are publishing your ideas for the world to find and read if they are interested in what you have to say. If you don't want your mother or future employer to read it, then set the privacy settings accordingly.
This site won't live forever, it will be deleted once you leave Evergreen but you can take the structure and text with you.
