"As a teacher, what range of Web 2.0 applications do you need to integrate into your web presence? What are your goals? What are your students’ needs? How best to facilitate communications with your students and their parents? What about your principal’s expectations and/or concerns?"
I have been thinking a lot about these questions and I have surveyed my students, some parents, our principal and our tech coordinator as well. I know that communication and organization are the priorities for me, my students and their parents. In order for my website to be effective, students and parents must be able to navigate it easily and quickly. I want them to be able to find what they're looking for:
1. how to contact me via email or ask me a question via my blog
2. how to find out what's happening in class and what they missed if absent or unclear
3. how to look up homework assignments and due dates and extra credit opportunities
4. how to find rehearsal and performance schedules, as well as dress codes
5. easy access to Power School to check grades
6. easy access to the SJA website and Google email
7. easy access to Turnitin to submit and check writing assignments
8. easy access to YouTube videos of interest and educational quality, as well as other unique resources for young musicians and actors
9. easy access to upcoming theatrical events in the Cleveland area

This is my blog for my Ed Tech class at John Carroll University. I have been learning about using this blog with the help of my professor, Dr. Shutkin, as well as my colleagues in my SJA cohort.
