Assignment Description
This assignment called for the planning and creation of a course website. In addition to creating a homepage that would inform the reader about the course and the teacher, the website offers additional pages and helpful links that can be viewed by students, parents, or administrators. Examples include a link to the course calendar, the homework page (offering a brief description of assignments and relevant information), and a page exhibiting student projects from the current and/or recent semesters.

Technology and Teaching
Organization and communication are key elements for success in any environment. As educators we spend so much time planning for lessons, schedules, and countless other things and then trying to communicate these to students, parents, and administrators. In short, the more time we save organizing and communicating the better of we are. The creation of a website will not necessarily save time in terms of planning, but it will facilitate organization of planned items. More importantly it has the potential to greatly reduce the time spent communicating by posting in a public venue: schedules, descriptions and due dates of upcoming assignments, notable dates affecting the course, and other useful information. And it makes for greater flexibility.
