Instructional Website

I need to get moving on my instructional website. I have been reflecting all day.  Now I need to sit down with paper and pen and write it out.  I can still see a design better on paper than on the computer screen.  And although I can type out a blog post or tweet or respond or write a discussion post without composing on paper first, big projects require being in a closed room with no distractions and no computer.  I hope its just a habit that will evolve into being able to work at the computer full time at some future date.  Now that I think about it, I used to compose my discussions on paper before posting, when I first starting taking online courses.

I'm afraid I was overambitious with my design for my instructional  website.  Except for having 8 pages planned, but now I see I need to have 10.  So  students will design a rain garden for a client that is having pollution runoff and rainwater ponding issues on their property.  Similar to what I experience when we have a big rain on my property.  So as a student what do I need to know to design and construct one with current best practices.  Its falling into place now...
