MIT - Developing My Prototype

After receiving some feedback about my initial site it was great to have the opportunity to develop it further. One suggestion I like was on the home page creating an image to show the journey I take as a teacher to teach writing. 

It was great to have the day to spend on developing the site and creating mini-videos without any disruptions. I revisited some I had done for questioning and shorten the introductory video and created small video clips that could run independently on different pages so students could listen to the example supplied not just read it.

I like the idea of teaching writing as a journey, so my first idea was like a car traveling along.

Then I thought about what we have been doing in class and talking about the waka journey and how we all came here somehow and many traveled over water to get here traditionally. 


Now I want to fine-tune this so it is more introductory and more description on the following pages.

Still, I am being asked who is this site for as I originally thought it would help students so students might come here. So I am currently puzzled by this question.
