Develop a web-based collection of website, activities, and practice
for each grade-level (5-K) at New Holland Knowledge Academy.
Using the existing school website, each grade level will have a
page with helpful links, separated by subject area, where students
and parents can visit to practice previous content and explore
future content.

While completing this field experience,
I became much more familiar and
fluent in the programming necessary to
maintain and manage an effective
website for my school. I was also able
to use the State Common Core
Standards to come up with applicable
websites and resources that can
supplement instruction in the
classroom. I was also able to take a
leadership role by starting this online
initiative that will hopefully open the
door for Flipping the Classroom in the
future.

This activity was important as an
Instructional Technology Specialist
because the work is done to benefit the
faculty and student body on academic
and technological levels. This step is
the first small step toward Flipping the
Classroom. Flipping the Classroom is
an initiative that I would like to begin
slowing instituting into New Holland
Knowledge Academy. This activity
was important to demonstrate to
teachers how our school website can be
used to benefit the students and support
classroom learning.

Assessing the functionality and
helpfulness of this initiative can be
made during my monthly meetings
with grade levels and faculty. By using
new technologies to support
instruction, this field experience
supports the vision of the technology
department of Gainesville City. Using
the input from teachers, I intend to
keep these links up to date and relevant
to content in the classroom. Based on
the input received from the faculty, I
will make changed and amendments to
the content that I have uploaded thus
far.
