Welcome to the MS Computer Lab Blog!

The objective of our blog is to share information about how we integrate our technology curriculum into the subject area curriculum. The foundation of this effort is the methodology of team teaching the lessons with the Middle School subject area teachers. Each post describes a particular lesson, the software used, some of the skills that were targeted, and the number of days that were spent in the lab.

Online Newspaper in Dreamweaver

The 8th Grade National Spanish students spent two weeks in the computer lab, composing an original online newspaper with fictitious news stories. They used Dreamweaver to organize the different sections and concentrated on efficient networking between team members in order to meet the deadlines. One person in the team acted as the webmaster, receiving and linking the html documents from the reporters/writers/graphic artists who produced the material.
