Weebly

www.melissanormoyle.weebly.com is my new Weebly!! Its exciting! It seems kind of daunting making a website, but now that I have started one, its not so difficult after all!

SWOT analysis

STRENGTHS
- Simple to use.
- Students can take pride in having their very own website they can share with the family.
- Students can upload work on their website for assessment purposes.
- Free to use.
- Students can access their work from any classroom and home.

WEAKNESSES
- Easy for students to get distracted and use the website for non school purposes.
- May be difficult to convince schools that it is beneficial for students to have a website.
- May need more than one adult in teh classroom to ensure studetns are on task.

OPPORTUNITIES
- Students can involve their parents in their school work.
- Parents can become more 'in touch' with what their children are doing in class.
- Can be used across all subject areas.

THREATS
- The website may not be free to use forever.
- May be time consuming.

Based on this, I think website's would be very useful in the classroom.
