You can work with any public profile web page that contains information about you and your work (e.g., Google Scholar, LinkedIn) and that you are able to edit directly. We recommend the following:\n<ul>\n<li><strong>First choice:<\/strong> If you have a Washington State University departmental or staff profile page, and have the power to edit this page yourself, it is the ideal choice for this exercise.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Second choice:<\/strong>&nbsp;Use the ORCiD profile you created on Day 1, or any public profile on a platform like Humanities Commons, Open Science Framework, or other social networking platform.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Third choice:&nbsp;<\/strong>Use your own independent website or blog, if you have one.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n<div class=\"wsu-row wsu-row--halves\" >\r\n    \n<div class=\"wsu-column\"  style=\"\">\r\n\t\n\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li>Your goal is to ensure that all the work you\u2019ve done this week to establish and manage your presence on the web is fully integrated into your web page.
