Colleagues, I have been using the new web-authoring tool, Claris Home Page, from the Claris Corporation. It appears to be an excellent tool for schools because it is cross-platform (Mac and PC-Windows 95), and it is just like a word processor: You type (copy or drag) in your text, images, links, etc. and it automatically creates an HTML file for you behind the scenes. I worked with a teacher and nine students in Michigan (4th grade through college) this summer using Claris Home Page to create web pages. The students made great progress in only one week, and all created beautiful home pages which we are now about to put on the web. I am writing you to see if anyone else has used this product -- especially with students. I am eager to see what kind of experience you have had with students of different ages. If you have any stories to tell, personal or otherwise, I would appreciate your sharing them with me. Thank you!
