I am the technology coordinator for a Pk-12 small private school. I am looking for new ways to publish student writing online so that parents can go to one site and browse work from the entire school. Any suggestions as to a fairly easy way to do this? Thanks!
There's a free, easy solution through Google. With Google Docs, you can upload the student work (.doc, .pdf, .xls, .ppt, and more) and publish to the web. That way you have a link to the document that you can put on your school site to link to the student work (or you can set up a Google Site that hosts the links). Hope this helps!

I am trying to start using Google Docs with my ELLs. This semester will be one of experimenting, but next year I will know enough to make it a smoother process. Staff is not really into technology at my site (and I am in Silicon Valley, CA no less), but if my students get jazzed about it, the "infection" should spread. I set mine up with user IDs and Passwords (student ID numbers) I will have access to. I have told parents that they should feel free to observe what students are writing. Most importantly, I can monitor EVERYTHING they add.
