I share those same concerns. I only have a handfull of teachers whom are very computer literate. The others can be very computer phobic and feel that they need constant assistance. However, I think allowing them to play with the site themselves at home and then returning with questions or comments about the site will give them a sense of ownership and independence somehow and ease the phobia. I had also thought about creating some sort of worksheets over the summer for the staff to follow when I present these websites in the fall. This might give the teachers with not much technology experience a sense of guidance and support while they learn along the way.
