Website recognition!
November 1, 2008 katdp3
Even though I will not be creating a website for much historical use, the one I am making I want to make sure students and parents want to come back to! Have clear, navigable tabs and links that provide good direction and information is vital. Knowing my community, I want to be certain that the design has some promise. By making clear, basic titles like “assignments”, tests/quizzes, projects and helpful links” my community will not be confused or frustrated with the layout. Providing students will the website and access to the site (through the district’s template) also has to be crystal clear and accurate!
I will definitely check out other websites with the same goals to see what is most effective. Although this chapter was not really targeted for high school teachers, the ideas were useful for consideration. Worst case scenario would be for me to announce my site for parents, with a bad design and have phone calls and emails of parents complaining about its format! So it will be a very very cautious project for me and one that I will approach slowly and with a great deal of care.
