Post # 5

The internet is the best resource for students because it contains so much knowledge and information. Anything a student would like to know or reseach can be found easily on the web. There are thousands of learning sites used to teach kids nad help them in areas like math, reading, writing, science and history. Images and videos are also there for step by step directions.
The internet also lets students in the higher levels to look at upcomming assignments and there grades. This could be very useful to a teacher becuase instead of showing everyone their grade all he would have to do is say check online. Like for instance my old high school Park Vista had a site that all grades could be seen on. This page is great for parents who can never find out how their kids are doing before it is too late.
THe web could also help kids learn on their own, which is a great head start for things to come. It gives kids responsablities on what they feel is appropriate to see on the internet and what it is used for. The internets big purpose is also communication. A student can contact other students for missed work or extra help. Blog sites help so all the students in the class and communicate. That is a big help becuase students can get very frustrated when overwhelmed.
