#3 My website ideas

My intentions for my website is a site that allows my students, parents, family, and just anybody who might be interested to access information about me, courses I teach, or other educators. I'll have four main links available-one for my high school students, one about OSU, one for my family (if I can figure out how to passcode it), and one that sends you directly to email me. I'm working with SeaMonkey, which is a whole new experience for me. I chose to go ahead and work with this program because it is a free download from the Internet and I thought that in the future my district may not be able to afford something like DreamWeaver of FrontPage. This will allow me to learn how to design a site that I could potentially teach tostudents one day. I intend to keep my site simple and easy to navigate. I want to be able to show students that a site can be appealing without too many flashy icons and that anyone can actually create a website. The site will be in my home school colors of Orange, Black, and White.


There may also come a time that I would like to design a website for an organization that I am the advisor for at school. I enjoyed reading about Josh's intention of designing a site for his FFA program. I also enjoyed reading about Scott's idea of keeping his site more personalized for family and friends.
