Conference 2005
Proposal #22

Title: Using MS FrontPage to Enhance Instruction and e-Portfolios

Name: Ken R. Rushlow

Audience Level: All

Audience: : General - Anyone interested in collecting or disseminating information.

Length:: Best if presented in a 2-hour time frame with hands-on training. Presentation possible but participants would not be able to create anything.

Abstract:
Use MS FrontPage to enhance instruction, collect information through email or store in a database. Easily have students chose specific assignment topics, develop web pages, or produce a class web page quickly. Participants will also produce an electronic portfolio. Participants of the workshop will leave with a CD they created for future reference and a CD with the workshop contents.

Description:
The participants will create a CD while learning to use MS FrontPage to enhance instruction, collect information through email or store in a database. Participates will learn how to have students chose specific assignment topics, develop web pages, or produce a class web page quickly and produce an electronic portfolio. Participates will need basic computer skills, prior knowledge of MS Word and MS FrontPage will be helpful but not mandatory. Hands-on-time will be spent creating web pages that are capable of collecting almost any information desired by the instructor or to disseminate information students need before a class discussion or during a project.

Session Type: I am requesting a hands-on-workshop. However the presentation is suitable for a pre-conference workshop or a presentation if the Instructional Technology Conference Committee deemed it appropriate.
