I think web page building can be very useful in the classroom especially for younger grades that usually send home news letters introducing new concepts, ideas, or asking for parent involvement. I found the scholastic web page builder was easy to use and able to be customized to illustrate different themes. Web page building facilitates parental involvement. It would be so much easier for parents to have a web site they can log into and view assignment or reading lists. In the district I work in, Power School, allows parents to log in from home and view grades as well as how many points each assignment is worth for all core subjects.
Moreover, web page building allows teachers to be creative and it also allows teachers to post important announcements for both parents and students to read. Also, a web page can allow students to view homework assignments when they are away from school. A web page can reflect the climate of the classroom and teachers can even ask students for their input on the web page design.
