Web Tools

Web tools are highly assistive to teachers in all aspects of teaching in the classroom, as well as students learning effectively in the classroom. Teachers can use these tools to photo share with students, or create pod casts which can be viewed outside of the classroom. They can also be used to create websites and blogs, as we have done in this class this semester. When a teacher creates a website, it can be seen by a student’s family members for them to gain information and insight on what the child is learning in the classroom, as well as background information on the teacher. Web tools can be used to create learning devices as well, such as puzzles or worksheets. I think web tools will assist me when I am teaching in the classroom because it will give students a chance for independent assignments when they do worksheets, as well as help me keep things organized on how each student learns.
