TEAM EXERCISE Form small groups, and describe and evaluate your college or university’s website. A different member of the group might carry out each of the following tasks:

• In an email to the site’s webmaster, ask questions about the process of creating the site. For example, how involved was the webmaster with the content and design of the site? What is the webmaster’s role in maintaining the site?

• Analyze the kinds of information the site contains, and determine whether the site is intended primarily for faculty, students, alumni, legislators, or prospective students.

• Determine the overlap between information on the site and information in printed documents published by the school. In those cases in which there is overlap, is the information on the site merely a duplication of the printed information, or has it been revised to take advantage of the unique capabilities of the web?

In a memo to your instructor, present your findings and recommend ways to improve the site.
