In preparation for our conference, please do the following, ideally in this order:

a) Catch up, where possible, with reading, blog entries, independent examination of hypertexts for inspiration, and responses to peers.

b) Prepare an annotated bibliography of relevant research and a review of the literature, using at least 4 _highly relevant_ scholarly articles or book chapters from the library, and 3 highly relevant and reliable sources available on the internet. Incorporate the review of the literature and annotated bibliography into your website. (You can count up to 500 words of the review of the literature toward your total "original writing," but not the annotated bibliography.) Bring hard copies of the articles and chapters.

c) Complete a _revised_ draft of your hypertext, keeping in mind that the core mission of the project is to evoke the "lived experience" of a particular low-wage occupation. This draft should follow principles of good design from standard sources and sites you researched for inspiration, and include a total of at least 2000 words of your original writing. The text must be connected with internal links over at least a dozen distinct web pages. (Please do _not_ come to this meeting with a list of your plans for revision--do the revisions for the meeting so that we can assess them and move forward to another level of accomplishment.)

You'll receive your homework for Week 8 in a handout during our meeting.
