Grading: 20 pts. -5 if name is still on project, -5 if folder of images has not been included in the email (best way is select it from the desktop, drag it on to the email, drop it). + bonus.  -20 if not done by due date, -30 if one class day late, -40 if two, etc.


1. Open the final version of your project in Word.*


2.Convert your project into web  (htm or html) files.

2a. BEFORE YOU BEGIN, PUT THE CAPTIONS OF THE PICTURES IN EACH PROJECT INTO A LIST OF ILLUSTRATIONS AT THE END OF YOUR PROJECTS. Otherwise, Word will just probably mess them up when you save your projects as web pages. So, your images should now be "naked," that is, with no captions, footnotes, or endnotes.

2b. Assuming that in WORD you have opened the file you used to print the hard copy of project one (the one with the color pictures inserted in the text), when you have the file open, select the “Save as Web Page” option in Word.  (Eventually, you will save it to your jump drive.) (If your word processing program does not have this option, see the instructor.) Do NOT choose the option "Single File Web Page" which results in an "mht" rather than an "htm" file.

2b1. If you  have chosen the right option, at the top of the option choice page you will see your project name now followed by "htm." Make sure your file ends in "htm -- "not "mht" or "doc" or "wps." (You can not just type "htm" at the end of the file name because that alone won't make the file accessible to the web.) Also, if the resulting file name is long or contains spaces, shorten it. Generally, make file names and folder names as brief as possible to avoid transcription errors later. For example, P1A.doc, rather than Project One about .......... doc. At the next stage then you will have P1A.htm rather than Project One about ..........

2b2. At the bottom of the page in the format options make sure it says "Web Page (htm)" and make sure to check "Save entire file into HTML" below the format option.

3. Return to top of the option choice page and notice that to the right of the new title of the project, now ending in .htm, there is a selection icon or whatever that lets you decide where to save the file. Choose that icon and specify that the file is to be saved onto your jump drive.

3a. Now select the "Save" option in the lower right hand corner of the option choice page.


4. Check the jump drive. On it there should be the P1 htm file and another folder containing the images for P1 titled something like P1_files .............

5. Put the jump drive into another computer and test the P1 htm file to see if it opens, with images, on its own.


5. Email the P1 htm file AND the folder of images [keep them inside the folder] to bump@utexas.edu. Or, if the files are not too big for your email program, bring the jump drive to class.


 

*If you have not written your project in a web-site-creation program such as Dreamweaver, iWeb, or Publisher you will need to convert your file(s) into web files, that is, "htm" or "html" files. Most students use Microsoft Word for word processing, so we will use that as our example. The version I will be using will be the 2008 version for Macs, so your version may differ. Also, I am going to assume that you will be using a jump drive for that makes all this much easier and they cost less than $10 usually.
