    This website is an example of a social studies teacher implementing technology into their classroom by having a class website. This type of class is interactive for students and will motivate them to become better learners. As university students, we have gotten used to having access to notes, grades, and assignments online, however this is not commonly found with elementary school students. Although the subject material on this website is not Canadian, the concept can definitely be applied and used in our classrooms.

    Mr. DeMink includes course outlines, project guidelines, notes, and grades on his website. Students are able to access these materials at any time, allowing them to be involved in the course after school hours. The problem with this strategy, like many technological strategies, is that some students may not have access to a computer outside of school. It is pertinent that if this idea is used in a classroom, then hard copies of the notes and available at student's requests.
