Web Page

It was fun, albeit challenging, to create a web page. I liked combining creativity with critical thinking. For instance, I was able to choose aesthetically pleasing pictures but I had to structure them so they enhanced the content of my website. It was challenging, but fun.

However, I'm still unsure if I'd use this tool as a teacher For instance, is it practical? Will I have time to maintain a current website easily accessible to students? Also, does keeping a website make it an unfair advantage to students who have internet access and a useless resources for those whom do not have access all the time? I'm not sure. However, one encouraging thing is that while checking my email at work, I saw that where I work (a hs) offers internet training courses to teachers as well as the software through which to create your own web page. This is encouraging because it means schools at least offer the time and resources through which to create such an instructional tool.
