1.3. Student-Members: Our students (Elementary school students and middle school students). The members will maintain the status even if they are not at our school or they became older (are no longer in middle school or below).
1.4. Guests:
The students' parents
2. Names:
Our teachers should be named by their full name or first name + Aloud: For example Melanie Aloud or Aloud Melanie. So students will know that the member is one of our teachers.
3. How to use BAND:
An Example: Students can post their photos, videos, and other content. Then the students can talk with the teacher about posts, make sentences with them, and then those comments can be added to band. If students make a story about something it can be posted so that teachers and other students can comment on it.
4. Web Bonus Scores:
Wage sheets will score teachers based on their web activity, the maximum score is 10 points (as before). Before this was only based on activity on aloud.kr,now, BAND posts will also factor into that score.
5. Advantages of BAND:
BAND is a good way for students to gain self-confidence and communicate socially in English.
