Teacher web pages vary at DV, but you will

teachers have created their own pages
using web programs, others have used a
program called TUOL for their sites, and
still others are using the School Fusion
web pages. Each teacher will tell you how
and when they expect you to use their
websites. Here are 2 examples:
Sample of a teacher web page that is
done in SchoolFusion…
Teacher web pages done in school
fusion will look similar and may have
any of the following classroom items:
Calendar, Announcements, Files,
Agenda, Class work, Links, Discussion
Topics, Videos, Blogs etc. They may also
have homework drop boxes, if they do,
the teachers will review those with you
in class.
Teacher web site linked through SF…
This teacher links to her web page that
uses the TUOL system, others will have
their sites linked through their
Announcements or Link sections of the
page.
Sample of a club page that is done in SF …
If you want to join a club
page just click on the
“Join this FusionPage”
link. The club sponsor
