Website for the Classroom

Creating a web site for the classroom is not only beneficial for parents and students, but for the teacher as well. Creating a site that is so personal in the aspects of self and school lets others get to know the teacher a little more personally. Teachers can create a short autobiography about themselves to gain parents trust and let them know a little more background knowledge of the teacher. Also, objectives for the classroom and assignments that are due may be posted so parents can access what their child needs to be working on and help them improve with homework assignments. Calendars can be created to help achieve this. When creating my own web site, I thought it would be a little harder to do. Following the step by step instructions made it easy for me to complete, and I definitely see myself using web sites in the future for communication with co-workers, students and parents. Using a web site helps meet NET-T standards in many different aspects, such as the teacher being able to design and develop modern technology, as well as modeling their know-how of how to do such.
