Introduction:

Curriculum Webs web sites that are developed to support a unit of learning (a curriculum). They vary considerably in their structure and the kinds of learning activities they contain; however there are certain standard issues that come with implementation.

This module is designed to offer practical advice for implementing your Curriculum Web in your classroom situation, and develop a plan for getting the most out of the technology to which you have access.

Whether you are planning on creating a Curriculum Web, have already created one or are using one that already exists, there are many items to consider before you begin to implement it.  There are some general strategies that can assist in time management, classroom management and avoiding and/or managing technical delays and derailments.  Following these general strategies, the module recognizes that those who teach elementary school will encounter differences in implementation from those who teach at the high school level, and offers strategies tailored for these two situations.
