1) Why is communication important between teachers and parents? Communication is important because parents should know what their children are doing, and how they are doing. If there are weaknesses then parents should work with students at home. The only way for a student to get a well-rounded education is to also be learning outside of the classroom.
2) In what way will you communicate with your students’ parents? I plan to have an online site to communicate with parents and students, if that is unavailable to me I would certainly create a quarterly newsletter with all contact information on it.
3) What new communications software applications would be fun to try to communicate with parents for sharing assessment techniques? I think any type of secure networking site is good for communicationg with parents. I was very impressed with schoology, and look forward to trying that out.
4) What software did you use, why did you choose to use it? For this particular assignment we used letterpop. I feel any type of program such as publisher would work to create a newsletter. I am happy that letterpop was free though.
5) How was it to collaborate on this project? Team techsavy did a great job collaborating. We were very progressive in our ideas, and figure out exactly how we wanted to structure it very quickly.
6) What would you do differently if you did a Class Newsletter again? I may use a different program, as I found letterpop to be confusing, and not user friendly.
