Introduction

Teaching in the Information Age requires that educators develop new skills to enhance instruction and support student learning.  Designing a high-quality classroom website takes much thought and planning, but the benefits are well worth the effort.  As an eMINTS teacher, you will be creating a classroom website.  Many factors must be considered in order to ensure that your website is of the highest quality.  In addition to page layout, navigational elements, graphic and color choice, teachers must consider how the content and features of the website support instruction and student learning.  This WebQuest will assist you in planning the instructional components of your website.
