We developed a small collection of handouts and instructions that students can use on their own if they wish to teach themselves. Another recommendation is to bookmark or create school home page links to a wide variety of online directions and tools. Web authoring software should be part of your collection. You may wish to make shareware products such as HTML Super Text readily available on the computers being used to create web pages. Several commercial products are also suited for school use.
Users can manipulate text and images, create forms and clickable images maps.
A newer product that offers much potential for Macintosh and Windows users is Claris Home Page . Students with the skills and interest and ignore the templates or go beyond the basic requirement. Helper applications and graphics software are necessary. Helper applications are tools to assist Internet users and provide more power to basic Internet search tools. Fetch, text editors, audio and video file viewers, and graphics utilities are examples.
