Abstract

The field of education, along with most other fields in the workforce, has been largely affected by recent developments in technology. The prevalence of the Internet in homes, as well as in the classroom, has made technology a valuable resource in all areas of education. With email and accessible ways to create and publish websites, the Internet offers many ways for teachers to communicate with their students, as well as the parents of their students. Yet, many teachers and parents do not often utilize the Internet as a communication tool. I created a classroom website with an original design and content that I will be able to use in my own classroom as a professional educator. The website contains pages for both students and parents with, school and classroom information, homework schedules, announcements, class rules and expectations, information about the teacher, and links to helpful Internet resources.
