Developing and introducing digital classroom resources like custom web pages can help increase engagement and digital literacy while giving your students easier access to information. Web design tools like WordPress, Wix, and Squarespace are just some of the options available that can enable you to create valuable online resources for your students.

Learning to build a simple web page where you can collate information, resources, or even lesson plans is a great way to give students easy access to valuable content. Here are just a few ideas for the types of websites you can create for your classroom:

• Digital school newspaper
• Online test study guide
• Classroom/Teacher blog
• Digital student portfolios
• Online discussion board

Building a website will allow you to share resources and content across several classes and semesters, while also giving students a resource they can access well after they have completed their coursework.
