Class,
We will not have class next week, but you are required to do research for our next project. I want you to read the following posts. No, let me be more assertive. I want you to study these posts:
- Read life clever: 7 deadly sins of resume design
- Words that hurt your resume
- 36 Beautiful resume designs
- A glimpse and a Hook
- 10 Tips for a slightly less awful resume
- 20 Most Creative Resumes
Why am I asking you to study these posts?
Because they contain many useful tips for resume content and design. We will use the design tips when we create a new resume using InDesign. To ensure that you actually read these posts, this assignment will be worth the full weight of your homework grade for the last part of our quarter.
How will I know if you actually read them?
Answer: I have ways. But stop trying to game the system and just do it. Use the time next Monday from 6 to 10 pm to finish the assignment.
… in addition, I asked you to bring in any old (paper) photo and to bring in one example of a before and after photo restoration. I will ask to see both in our class on 11/24.

the second link “25 words…” doesn’t work because you didn’t put the ‘p’ in ‘http’ when you wrote the hyperlink…
