Oscar Bennett Capstone
For my capstone project I created a website designed to help students learn more about their teachers and who they are as a person. I did this by interviewing as many teachers as I could, and writing down key takeaways about their teaching style, classroom atmosphere, and advice for students. The goal for this was to be able to turn all the information I gathered into an easy to use resource that helps students be more comfortable before entering the classroom for the first time. This website helps create a stronger sense of community and connection between students and teachers. I always have felt a little intimidated and scared when walking into a new class for the first time, especially when the teacher is somebody I have never had before. I wanted to create something so that future students didn’t have to feel like they were blindly walking into a new classroom. I knew that I wanted to get information about teachers and compile them somehow for students to view, but I wasn’t sure what the best way to do that was. I decided a website would be the best way to combine all of the information I had because a website is both easy to use, and extremely accessible to future students.
