Developing Web Pages for Classroom Use

1. Avoid long pages (each shouldn't take more than 3 screens full)
2. Stick to one idea per page
3. Have one audience per page (only for students, only for teachers)
4. Put important information near the top--don't bury it
5. Put author information on the home page
6. Put page last updated information on the home page
7. Don't put kid's last names on any pages
8. Get parent/school permission to post pictures of students
9. CHECK YOUR WORK! Remember, you are a professional. You should have no mistakes on your pages. It's a good idea to have a colleague critique your site and offer suggestions
10. Avoid many graphics or images that don't relate
11. Put a title on every page
12. Put a link back to your home page on every web page
13. Pages should have a consistent look and feel (set up in the same format)
