Final Project, Part 2 (Question 5)

June 2, 2008

This could be used for a Spanish teacher. The communication needs to be very good so the students don’t get confused and they know how to correctly pronounce the words. The teacher could record her voice to say the words for the current chapter. The calendar would be useful to map out the week’s classwork and homework. The question mash up would be a good way to ask the class questions and get answers if it is needed right away. The students could also study together by video or instant messaging.

There will be functions that enhance the educational part of the site too. One will be a place where the teacher can record her voice talking about whatever he or she wants. Possibilities could be a word list or a monthly overview or even how to do an assignment. The second one will be a calendar that the teacher posts what the class will be doing and what the homework is for the night. It will keep students on track and will boost their grades.

The website will have two other functions to keep it interesting. One will be a mash up that they can ask questions just like the one we worked with this year. The other will be another mask up where students can start an artwork and everyone can add to it. It will be like paint and the end project will be very intricate.

The communication between teachers and students will be very easy. The students will have access to the teacher’s email and an instant messaging. Document sharing will be a key part of the web site. It will allow students to turn in their work if they can’t print it out at home or if they’re going to be absent the next day. Images, videos and other files are also going to shared and uploaded so everyone can view them. Students will be able to collaborate by video chat or instant messaging. This will make is so students don’t have to go to someone else’s house to work on their project.
