What is a complete curriculum web?

What is web-based curriculum (or "curriculum web")?

"a plan for a sustained process of teaching and learning, in which teaching and
learning is facilitated with a linked set of web pages, providing explicit guidance to the learner and also providing access to selected web-based materials"

Generally, a curriculum web includes the following web materials:

• a "front page" or "portal" which provides the main entry point into the lesson
• "activity pages" which describe specific learning activities for students
• a "teachers page" which contains information useful to the teacher, including
• "curriculum guide" containing the elements listed above
• on-line feedback mechanisms so students can communicate with the curriculum designer
• on-line assessments so students can test their knowledge or understanding
