course was to take a somewhat difficult apparatus and write about how
to operate it. This project was reviewed and edited again before
posting to this web page. My assignment example is contained in

We also had to do a collabortive
final project in which two or three people assisted in either writing a
document
or composing a web site. Our group did a collabortive writing
assignment on an article from Elevator
World. Part of the assignment was to compose a proposal
for the project. Below is our group's example of that assignment:
