Teacher Web

There are many strengths of using a web resource like the teacher web within the classroom and with students. It enables flexible accessibility to in-class handouts, homework assignments, and other information for the parents/guardians of the students to know. The teacher web allows communication between parents and students in a safe and easy manner. Some weaknesses may include the fact that not every single student may own a computer and those families may not benefit from the teacherweb.
Teachers can use the teacherweb as a resource to communicate with parents. For example, through the handouts page, calender, wish list, and more, the parents/guardians of students in class can easily find out all the information they may need with just a click of a button. Teachers can also update this information anytime they like. Parents can see the updated teacherweb just minutes after the teacher has updated the pages. This is a great way to communicate between teacher and parent which may prevent any miscommunication from happening.
The teacher web site can be used to engage students in their learning. Students use and take the review quiz, project reflection, and webquest projects on the teacherweb. In this way, they can easily go online to the teacher web site and test themselves and find information about class projects, activities, and homework.
I like the idea of the teacher web because I think it it an easy and convenient way for teachers to commnicate with parents and students. I will most likely use this type of teacher web in my future classroom.
