One small change I am considering making with my project for the semester is to include more teacher input. I am utilizing my network's "intranet" system (Prism) in order to disseminate, organize, and store important forms, documents, handbook, etc. as a common place for all staff members to have access to. I currently have not solicited teacher feedback for the site, and I think this could be a small, but important change moving forward. I remember with our projects for another class in our program we had to have prototypes and share this with our client for feedback. I think this is a feasible change that I can integrate without much difficulty, and would give me valuable information about things such as the content, layout, and more. As time progresses, I believe that I can get continuous feedback from the staff and make the appropriate changes based on what the staff is able to share with me.

I think that's a great idea. That way your site will be very useful for them because you are giving them what they need. Also, their input will give you a sense of direction as well. Be careful not to let their input overwhelm you.

Courtney,
I think an intranet or school-wide server is a necessity. Having always taught for public schools in large counties it never occurred to me that smaller schools or charter schools may not have that. I think your faculty and student body will benfit greatly; especially with document sharing.
