Potential for Webpages




I have created my webpage but yet to actually do anything with it. Will have to come back to that one! 








Strengths

History involves a lot of research and traditionally a lot of reading is required. Web pages can display limitless amounts of links, information, clips, podcasts.  A more engaging way to learn other than textbooks.

Can be created to suit any subject.

Students can create webpages. Can involve group work encouraging collaboration and higher order thinking.




Weakness

Limited interaction compared to Blogs and Wikis.

Only the Teacher or creator of the website can modify the webpage.



Opportunities

The use of websites and creating them can be something the students will make use of after their education in careers or social settings.



Threats


Websites are open for all to view.
