Today when we broke into our project groups, Doni, Lisa and I had a great conversation around just how we each planned on sharing our information in a url.  I feel confident adding pages to my weebly library website but Lisa and Doni still struggled with figuring out there best options. Doni liked my idea of adding to a website that already existed and we all agreed that as librarians we all wanted that website to be the library website, although Lisa mentioned that on her school website there is an “Inquiry” button that also might be a good place to post her Inquiry on Inquiry.  We discussed what might be some good headings for different sections and decided what type of information would come under each.

Through this discussion and the one we had at the beginning of class as a whole group, I’ve decided to make my “Global Connections” section a blog that will be part of the website. Here students, teachers, administration and parents can discuss connections they think we as a school can make with the rest of the world.  I am a bit hesitant about this being open to everyone to express their views but I think it is worth a try and I will be sure to police and monitor the blog on a regular basis.

I also came to the realization that for now, all my new webpages will, for the most part, be informational.  My goal in the future will to have more interaction on the site.  For now I will allow the blog to act as the interactive piece and as time goes on I will try to add more activity-based items. Although I didn’t get to creating any pages today, I look forward to getting at least one page done tomorrow.
