Teacher Web Reviews

Darin Orton (Mr. Orton):
-Darin did an excellent job creating and utilizing his teacher web effectively for class usage. The layout could use some work though, since it is still in the default template, but his color scheme and usage of various icons add a creative element to the teacher web. Darin's teacher web is very user friendly in the sense that everything is clearly labeled and easy to navigate. All requirements for our teacher web projects are present in Darin's, but the highlight of his site would have to be his about me page. After viewing it, I got the inclination that Darin is a very personable and enthusiastic guy, and that will take him far in his teaching career. It really shows Darin's interest in his subject matter and the love for his family, which is a wonderful trait to have.

Bob Stoddard (Mr. Stoddard):
-Like Darin, Bob used the default layout. Which is fine, but it would spice of his teacher web a bit if he took a little more time to be creative. The icons used for the links are very nice though and you can tell he took time on those. Another critique I have of Bob's teacher web is that there are 2 links that lead to absolutely nothing. The web 2.0 interactive links and the news flash link don't have anything in them, so either delete them or put your PB wiki and webquest links in the web 2.0 or web resources link. The highlight of Bob's page, like Darin's, is his about me page. You get a bit of a sense of who Bob is, and what his interests are. This will show Bob's students that he is human just like them!
