A) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_Atlantic_Igneous_Province

B) The NAIP makes up all of the North Atlantic Ocean and its formation has been linked to the Iceland hotspot/mantle plume.

C) A picture of the area the NAIP is located would be useful.

D) A successful part of the written communication would be the links throughout to help better understand the information and an improvable part would be adding bullets to the points listed.

E) A successful part of the visual communication would be the layout of the page and an improvable part would be providing a picture of the area being described.

B) This page describes the Iceland hotspot and mantle plume theory.

C) A few more sentences in the introduction.

D) A successful part of the written communication would be the contents that are available and an improvable part would be more description in the introduction.

E) A successful part of the visual communication would be the pictures available and am improvable part would be to take out the image at the top.

B) This page goes in depth and describes the Iceland plume and challenges to the plume model.

C) A few words throughout the paper could use links to describe the words.

E) A successful part of the visual communication would be the page set up and an improvable part would be a couple more pictures and bigger pictures.


Proposal

I plan on talking about the North Atlantic breakup and the reasons which caused it to breakup.


1. Introduction

2. North Atlantic area

3. Reasons

- Iceland Plume

- Tectonic affects


B) Its value is to help better understand the settings North Atlantic area and how this area came apart to what it is today. There are several theories for the North Atlantic breakup such as the Iceland plume affecting it or for tectonic reasons affecting it. The reason the mantle plume could have affected it would have been lithospheric weakening that occurred from the plume. The other reason it could have broken up would be from plate tectonics separating plates.


C) The structure of the page will start with an introduction of the topic and the area. Then under this will be a box with the contents of the wiki page. Then under this each title under the contents will be discussed. There will be a picture on the right side of the page of the area around Iceland showing the plate motions. This will help show the North Atlantic area and how the plates in that area are moving. I might also use a gif to show how the area broke up.
