I am creating a website, so conventions I will use to satisfy that will include an About
page, Contact page and other tabs; links to other parts of the site and to external pages; a
theme comprising of a layout for my site, header, fonts, colors, etc.; readable coherent
text to populate my content pages; and images. Since my site is argumentative in nature, I
will need to make sure my sources are cited/linked to as this will give my site credibility;
a “this-and-that” approach to my content which supports my assertion that multimodality
should be taught in college classrooms, plus evidence to persuade my audience. To
satisfy the academic aspect of my project, I will use design elements which are associated
with college writing courses such as red pen mark-up, fonts such as Times New Roman
and Arial, and possibly some stock images which relate to the classroom. Finally, to
properly honor my target audience of college teachers and students, I think a little bit of
cheek will be necessary in the way of jargon, .gifs and memes.
