Goals

= What I Would Like my Communication Tools to Accomplish =

I have stated that through this project I am trying to determine what the best way to communicate with my students is outside of school. Here is a listing of the features and capabilities that I am looking for in the tools that I am testing.


 * Must be able to post links to websites.
 * Must be able to post text and information from me.
 * Must be able to post video and images.
 * Students should be able to contact me privately.
 * Students should be able to comment on content.
 * Should be in a format that students can read easily.
 * Parents should be able to view it without having to create an account.
 * Should be able to permanently have information available that does not have to be updated. (Even better if it can carry over to another school year)
 * Should be free to use.
 * Should be private and not easily or openly publicly viewed.
 * Students should feel safe and comfortable using it.
 * Students should want to use it and feel that it helps with their learning.
