This was probably my favorite assignment so far. I am a perfectionist and kept changing and updating my site several times. I have not quite finished my reference page, but I am working on it. I feel that it is important for teachers to create classroom websites for their students' parents and community members to see. Sometimes parents want to see and know what their children are leanring in school. If the teacher has their own website set up, then the parents can simply go online and check their child's lessons.
I feel that i would be very goo at this when I start teaching. I find it fun as well as educational. Nine times out of ten parents are learning along with their children. They have already had this type of learning, but they forget about. If a teacher has their own web site they can leave tutorials for parents so that they can help their children with their homework. It is extremely important to show artifacts to higher administration such as principals or board members. Having artifacts allows the teacher to have their back covered in case any type of questioning arises.

I agree that this project was a fun project to do. It will also be a very effective tool in the classroom. I believe it opens communication for the teachers and the parents and helps build trust.
ReplyDeleteYou have a great start on your web site. I like the blue backgound, but found the bright red lettering hard to read. It could be my monitor though. I know some colors show better on some monitors than others. You did have a very nice design.
