Dreamweaver Level 1: Online Projects --- Building a Classroom Web Site

What to put on your site?
So you have decided to build a Web site for your classroom or school, what are you going to publish? The most important consideration at this point is to consider your mission and audience. Who is going to visit your site and what information are you going to provide? There are a few common components the make up most classroom and school sites:

School Web site:

  • Current phone numbers and email addresses of all faculty and staff.
  • Current school calendar.
  • Links to Grading system, and District site.
  • Links to internet resources for Parents and teachers, Pioneer Library etc.
  • Meets all District guidelines.
Teachers Web site:
  • Current contact information and schedule.
  • Short teacher biography.
  • Up to date calendars and schedules.
  • Teaching resources: handouts, study aids, etc.
  • Current syllabus for all courses.
  • Open Disclosure for all courses.
  • Student project galleries.
  • Field trip reports and photo galleries
  • Curriculum map for the school year
  • Internet resources for students and parents.
  • Meets all district guidelines.
Looking at examples both good and not so good is a very good exercise to help you decide what should go on a classroom or school site. UEN has a list of links to all the schools in Utah that have a published site. http://www.uen.org/Districts/k12.cgi
