Blog Design

Description:  The After School Program director asked for some help and advice for making his blog look better.  He also wanted to make sure that he had links that were appropriate for different aged students to have access to at school and at home.

Standards: TF-IIA. and IIC. (Planning and Designing Learning Environments and Experiences) and
                 TF-VD. (Productivity and Professional Practice)

Semester:  Spring 2011

Hours:  2 hours

Population: Colleague - ASP director, ASP workers, ASP parents and students

Reflection:  I get along really well with our ASP director.  He is currently attending school to become a physical education teacher.  He also subs in our room on occasion.  He asked that I take a look at his blog and evaluate its effectiveness.  He also wanted some suggestions of what kind of links could be added to the site that would prove educational, fun, and safe for students to use in ASP and at home.  I was able to provide feedback on his blog.  I suggested he use Smilebox to show off some of the pictures of activities going on in ASP, and then showed him how to use Smilebox.  I researched and provided several links that he could put on his blog for educational fun.  I think his blog looks really good and having the links available by grade level along the sidebar makes it easy for parents and students to find and use.
