This discussion provides a second opportunity to share your website. Again, sharing your website for feedback provides you with perspectives on your design and content to consider for enhancing your website before you finalize it during Week Six. To prepare for this discussion, construct a mission statement and add it to the homepage of your website. To construct your mission statement, consider the models you reviewed during the Week Four assessments and the tips for writing an effective mission statement from Education World (Links to an external site.). Next, update your working definition of at-risk. Then, be sure you have created pages for and linked to your Week Three Child Maltreatment Brochure and the Week Four School-Based Efforts: A Plan to Support At-Risk Youth assignment. Finally, if you have not already, adjust your website’s design using the feedback from peers and the instructor received during Week Three.

Initial Post: Create an initial post that includes a link to your website and addresses the following:

1. Describe        the inspiration behind the design of your own mission statement.
2. Discuss        the changes made to your working definition of at-risk and how        you believe the changes improved upon your original draft. If you made        no changes, explain why not.
3. Explain        where and how you made revisions to any artifacts and/or the design of        your website based on the feedback previously received from peers or        your instructor’s evaluation of the work.
4. Introduce        peers to the Child Maltreatment Brochure you developed during        Week Three by briefly describing what you learned about the topic and        about designing an effective brochure while creating it. Discuss any        challenges associated with designing the brochure as well as what you        like best about your creation.
5. Introduce        peers to the School-Based Efforts: A Plan to Support At-Risk Youth assignment        you developed in Week Four. Briefly discuss some of the most important        concepts learned while researching and preparing this assignment. What        do you like best about this creation or the process of creating it?
6. Describe        what you like so far about the process of gradually adding to your        website and sharing so as to participate in reciprocal feedback.
