Creating a Site

3. Model Digital-Age Work and Learning
Teachers exhibit knowledge, skills, and work processes representative of an innovative professional in a global and digital society. Teachers:

c.communicate relevant information and ideas effectively to students, parents, and peers using a variety of digital-age media and formats.

Using this tool, I would be able to post the day's activities, homework, upcoming events, and things that students can be doing to progress or even their personal grades. This allows for 24/7 access, which is a mjor convenience for everyone involved.
