DTLR Project Reflection

  1. TeacherWeb is a really cool for giving your students a consistent resource for class related information. Keeping track of due dates, completing minor quizzes, and even attendance could be completed online. However, I do not think TeacherWeb's true potential can be reached without every student in my class to have 24/7 accsess to an internet-ready computer.

  2. I worry about liability. However, the behavioral agreement form seems to be a good protection, but I would worry about some lawyer using the fact the student is not of age to sign a contract, but perhaps I could have the parents sign the form. Anyway, I think we could do some cool things on the Wiki, but it would take tons of time for me to set up. Perhaps after a few years, I will have built up a collection of lessons so I did not have to worry too much about planning and I would some have extra time.

  3. I would like to use the Wiki site for long-duration class projects: Possibly a sort of history simulation, or an online creative-writing club. I think the more creative you get and the farther you get away from the basic logistics use of the websites the more interesting, dynamic, and ultimately usefull these websites will become.
