Web log 4 
My web 2.0 will consist of a calendar, gradebook, email system, and live interactive chat/discussion board. 

I will use a calendar from jotlet.     https://www.jotlet.net/
I want students and parents to be able to check important dates and event happening in class. They can see when homework assignments are due, when quizes and test will be and what materials are covered.  It will show current units being covered for all to follow.


I will you a grade book from engrade. http://www.engrade.com/
Engrade is a secure website where all users will need a user id, pass code and id from the teacher to even be able to use the site.  It seems to be well organized an easy for students and parents to navigate.  Students and parents can check students grades and progress on each individual assignment and in the overall class.

Gmail mail.google.com is a email system that allows students to contact their teacher directly through email, students may have question and the teacher can respond to them very quickly and in depth.  Students can feel free to write what ever they want because only the teacher can see what they are asking so students do not need to feel uncomfortable at all.  This is a discussion directly between the student and teacher. Not the whole class.
 

Scribblarhttp://www.scribblar.com  is collaborative communication web 2.0 page that  has real-time multi-user whiteboard. Students can upload images and share. It has user lists and text chat. It includes live audio communications. Good discussion forum.
