VLab Task #6
We will turn our VLab tasks back to practicing resource skills, including
using the Library:
To start, lets make sure you all have found the Reserve Books for 207 in
OUGL:
Create a new file in your 207 subdirectory, call is "resources.html" or
"Resource Page for Urban Public Transportation" and
insert into this
new file all of the references which you have collected for your
concentration so far.
All references should be as complete as possible.
If you are unsure what this means, have a look at the references
(bibliography) of a paper in one of the major academic geography journals
(such as the journal "Economic
Geography").
If your references include Web sites, please make
these sites "clickable". If you are unsure what other information to
include (besides the full and correct URL), have a look
here
If you are interested in what lies ahead for your "Resource Page",
click here!

Task: Beyond HTML (Starting your Resource Page)
We have mastered the basics of Webpage construction, UNIX and HTML. Thus,
we now can communicate with eachother without having to resort to Email
which is much too unwieldy for this purpose. For the time being,
there will not be any further new Web tasks except those which make use of
what you
already know, namely filling your 207 subdirectory and table of
contents with future components of your project concentration.
Nevertheless, you are free to expand your Web skills,
visit this Web-Survival site
and get help from
our Web helpers. Within your group, you may also decide to use certain Web
technologies which go beyond what we have done so far. Let me know when I
can help such as by sending you to the appropriate experts.
Find the 207 Reserve Book List in the UW Libraries
Catalog: Reserve Website
and identify the book which is most likely able to help you
with your "field of concentration" and your project. Add this
title to your list of references which already includes your
reviewed document and the three references of your recent statement.
After you have seen this new book from OUGL Reserve (i.e. actually had it
in your hands), add a few sentences to
this new item (= "annotation"), maybe 2 sentences about the
content of the book and 2 sentences explaining how this book is
related to your field of concentration.
