Reviews

D'Ambrosio's stated purpose is to demonstrate how classroom teachers and library media specialists can work together to develop educational Web sites and student Web portfolios. Microsoft PowerPoint is espoused as an easy tool for Web site construction, especially for those with little or no experience. The information is divided into two major categories: "Teacher-Created Web Sites" and "Student-Created Web Portfolios." The first section includes examples of types of educational Web sites, with pros and cons of each; how to start the process; MS PowerPoint basic techniques; Web hosting and publishing Web sites; and getting noticed worldwide. The second half of the book defines a Web portfolio, provides types of content included in one, lists tips for successful experiences in the computer lab, and advises on the presentation of completed portfolios. Tips for teacher/LMS collaboration are included throughout the chapters in sections labeled "Library Media Connection." Each user-friendly chapter concludes with a mini-glossary. The index is somewhat limited by a lack of specificity. This welcome title provides basic information to help teachers and librarians integrate technology into classroom instruction.–Beth Jones, Shelby County High School, Shelbyville, KY
