The WEBSCOOL Goal

To provide teachers everywhere with web-based information and tools which help them to implement their curriculum.

    This Goal is actioned in the following ways:
  • The curriculum is made available through WEBSCOOL
  • WEBSCOOL structures itself in response to the curriculum
  • WEBSCOOL provides a forum for interpretation of the curriculum
  • WEBSCOOL provides a frameworks for class courses and projects
  • WEBSCOOL provides a forum for the use of Computers in Schools
  • WEBSCOOL provides a database of Computer Resources for Schools
  • WEBSCOOL provides a forum for Teacher Feedback and Experiences
  • WEBSCOOL provides access to projects on the Web
  • WEBSCOOL provides advice on learning prerequisites for a Project
  • WEBSCOOL provides a forum for assessment methods
  • WEBSCOOL provides server facilities for Schools that do not have their own servers
  • WEBSCOOL provides an index for School, Class and Teacher webpages
  • WEBSCOOL coordinates/facilitates topics for Class Projects
Because computers are bound to Information Technology, this is the obvious first point of emphasis for WEBSCOOL. But once the basics of computer use are acquired, WEBSCOOL seeks to provide support for every aspect of Education.
