Work with your team to identify the structure, focus, and persona of your Virtual Student. Delegate tasks amongst your team members. Have the most technically oriented people do the technical tasks. Try outlining your team's Web site on paper before you create any computer files. Lay out the project so that you know how many web pages you're going to write, who's going to be responsible for what, maybe even what file names you're going to use.
Careful planning is the key to a successful project.
Because your entire team has access to the group files, be careful not to erase each other's work. Keep backup copies in your own Unix account or your own personal PC or on a floppy. Create a personal web page for valuable bonus points, but don't spend too much time on it. All you need is a site with some basic information about yourself, and have it linked from your Virtual Student's page. If you like, you can request that the WPI Webmasters link your personal page to the main WPI web server using this form .
