School Web Site of the Month
Tech Directions, v67 n10 p24-25 May 2008
This article features "Tech Directions" School Web Site of the Month. The website (http://satellite.stcharles.k12.la.us) was produced by technology education students at the Satellite Center of St. Charles Parish Public Schools in Luling, Louisiana. The Satellite Center focuses on the career paths projected to expand the most over the next decade. The concept for the center arose from numerous meetings, focus groups, and site visits to progressive school districts around the nation. While attending the Satellite Center, students have access to state-of-the-art labs and equipment and learn to use tools vital to workplace productivity. To create the Web site, seven students researched current exemplary sites, then held focus groups with information technology professionals, students, faculty, and administration. Students determined site content through interviews with staff, faculty, center administration, and central office administration. In addition to their work on the Satellite Center's Web site, students also maintain their district's site and the sites of all middle and elementary schools in St. Charles Parish.
