Student Website Refresh!

7th and 8th grade SPECTRA students are refreshing their websites from last school year.  As older and more mature students, some of their previous content may not be as current about the students as they could be.

Students are given a scoring guide that lists and describes the components of a quality website.  The students then compare their current website to the components and expectations of the scoring guide.  Finally, they make corrections and adjustments to their personal websites to meet the standards on the scoring guide.

This activity takes place after our public vs. private lesson that discusses what type of information is appropriate for students to post on a website that is aimed at a global audience.  Below is the scoring guide, followed by pics of the students working on this back-to-school project.  Enjoy!
