I like the new gifted website a lot, but as you were saying in intervention, something all of the research groups could use are links to helpful sites. For example, if there was a website that was really large but the group only needed one page, the website addresses can get extremely long. One simple click from the gifted website to get to a good site for projects could be really helpful. So maybe, like where we had to click "blog" you could have a tab called "Research Links" or whatever. But that's one thing I'd like to see on the website. Another thing is that maybe, we could have ads for contests. Like that tower building contest we had...you could put pictures from that on the home page and also we could post some messages about how it went, how we felt about it. But keep in mind that this that I wish to see could be on the website anyways, I haven't even explored it yet. Anyways, that's what I'd like to see. I do really like how you put the picture of us at the Academic Games though. It adds color to the page and it recognizes us for our achievement, and it makes the site personal. It lets everyone know that it's the Girard gifted program. But that's what I like, and hope to see.

You should add what we are doing for the gifted program such as fundraising and update the photo on the screen showing not the people who are in the high school now. You should also a recommended website that each group could go on to make their research project better.

I think this is a wonderful site. I hadn't looked at it before. As a parent it's nice to see what your kids are doing. I also think the kids like seeing themselves. Ben and I looked at it together and he explained what he was going on in the pictures. I can't think of anything to add at this time. Great job and thank you!

I think it is a good tool to have group forums to discuss our concerns or ask questions. We will be checking in. Thanks!

I first off think that there should be weekly challenges that you post and only the people that read it and complete/try the challenge should get a prize. Also, if a gifted student does something cool inside or outside of school, you should post their accomplishment on the website. By an accomplishment I mean like someone gets a part in a play, or someone went on a cool vacation, or something like that. Also I would like to say that I LOVE this website. It is really cool to see things that I can't see like the video or the pictures. Thanks!

I think that we should add a list of our groups and what we are learning in your class so that people know what we do. I would like to have a private link for us to communicate with other people in our research group like a chatroom.

I totally agree with Katie. Research links would be helpful and so would listed upcoming events. I would really like it if the calendar was updated frequently.

I think that a good idea would be a calendar of field trips and upcoming events. Then you could click on a date with an event, and it would tell you what exactly we're doing and what you need to bring.

I really liked that you took the students to Penn State Behrend to visit the engineering school. I would like to see you do more activities that are math/science oriented to enrich that aspect of their education.

Although I access the Infinite Campus website frequently, this is the first time I've been on the the Gifted Program site. The little bonus homework note caught our eye and his mom and I reminded Christian to post a comment. The site is very informative, has a lot of nice pictures, etc. Good job with the site and keep up the good work with the program. Tom G.

I think that the picture on the front should be of everybody. Maybe there could be some links on possible career ideas or for our projects. I really like the new website! It's a great idea. :)

I think there should be more links to career information, some related to our research groups, and some other ones too. There could also be more information about what we are doing to go beyond what we normally do in class. I like all of the pictures and hope to see more.

I think the website is awesome! I think you should add some links to sites that we could use in our research groups.{Same at Katie} For example you could list sites computer programming computers could use to find out about careers in the programming computers field. Or you could put sites about different fundraising organizations for fundraising. Also for robotics you could put sites about different robots that were used in history. For the language group you could put sites on the different languages and cultures they are studying. Sites like these would help for our research groups and show our parents or other site visitors a bit about our projects. If this was added it would be very helpful. Thank you.

I think this website is great it gives us a place to share information with you and find things. I would like to focus on things like law school and what you would do there. I think if we did a class project we should target something everyone likes and is fun.

I think the website should have a problem/test/challenge [Like what Syd and Charlie said], and something like a Spelling or Geography Bee. Also, you should add stuff and websites to help on our group projects and what we are doing so that we could do research at home and stuff. 8)

Oh, and I also think we should have tabs at the top, like where the calender, blog, etc. tabs are, or smeller ones below whichever category they fall most under, for our groups. Just smaller pages for each group and on it could be the info, websites, and schedule for research/special events.

The website was very nicely done. It is nice to have a visual of what is going on in school. I was able to navigate the site without difficulty even though I'm not very computer savvy. I think that having the students comment on the photos or events would add to the site-like the EVES newspaper that you started last year. I agree with Katie that it would be nice to have links to current contests. We have participated in the PBS Young writers and Illustrators contest and there is one for Nasco currently to design a postcard that Katie would like to participate in.

This is awesome. I agree with all the suggestions/comments. I looked at the Website when it was first developed and it is nice to see all the additions. I enjoyed viewing all the pictures from the Penn State field trip with Sydney. I hope there are more field trips that continue to challenge our kids in a fun, educational manner. Great job!!)
