Thanks to B.E.S.T., we have added five additional computers, a scanner, and two digital cameras. The class also makes use of the new computer lab in room 308. Each student in the class is required to log a minimum of eight hours of work outside of class time every month. A meeting is held weekly to discuss current projects and receive assignments. Many of the projects require students to work together in small groups and with staff to gather design information.
Students also spend part of each week assisting staff with web questions.
In the future, we hope to provide assistance to staff at each of the schools in the district. Florian is the office manager. He manages groups, providing direction and assistance, and makes sure task gets done in a timely manner. Students that come to web team must have a basic undertstanding of HTML and web design. Through this class, Mr. Florian hopes students will develop their small group skills, learning to be a part of a team and how to work with students and teachers in providing assistance.
