Resume and Cover Letter Samples

Check your emails for a shared Google Drive folder for the Portfolio course. In it you will find sample resumes and cover letter templates.

You should use these examples as inspiration for your own resume and cover letter development.

Future documents will be shared in this folder, so make sure that you have access to it. If you do not, please be sure to send me your Google account information.

This Week’s Online Mobile Web Class

This week, Thursday runs as a Tuesday schedule. I will be at a conference, and it will be an online class. You can do this assignment anytime before our next class on Tuesday, February 19.
The tasks for this week will be as follows:
I’ve uploaded a video of Jonathan Stark’s presentation in Montreal in 2010. You can also find the video in 3 parts on YouTube titled: Jonathan Stark keynote at Web-in Montreal 2010 (part 1 of 3).
Watch the video(s). Be prepared to discuss the following in the next class:

  • What has changed in the mobile landscape since Mr. Stark first gave this presentation?
  • Describe his “fishbowl theory”
  • How realistic are his predictions about the direction in which mobile is going?
  • Now that we’re 3 years out from when he gave his presentation, what predictions can you make about where mobile is going?
  • What questions would you ask a client if they came to you asking for a mobile app?

 

Web I: Friday’s Online Class

Above is a link to my YouTube playlists that I have created for the Friday’s section of ADV2540 Section7219. It is a compilation of some of the topics which are covered in week 3 class. Watch the cPanel tutorials and the Dreamweaver tutorials.

Watch the videos, and do the following for homework:

  1. Create an email account associated with your portfolio site.
  2. Set up a site in Dreamweaver that is for your portfolio site.
  3. Test it to ensure that you can connect to the server.

In order to do this you must purchase a domain and hosting from an internet service provider. If you have used Kionic.com as recommended, then you will need to have the following:

  • ftp hostname
  • username
  • password

The ftp host name will be “www.yourdomain.com” where yourdomain is the url which you purchased. The username/password will be the same as your account username/password.

There are a couple of things that you should know in advance: the “Root Directory” setting when setting up the server will be “public_html/”.  The you also need to click on the “more options” and select “Use Passive FTP”.  Then when you hit “TEST” you should get a connected response.
