Google Sites and Blogs

This blog creation was inspired by the google site I have set up. I now have a link posted on both my google site and my blog for viewers to examine both.

This was the first time I've made a google site. I have already begun to think about the purpose of using education as a teacher, and can see how doing so can be very beneficial. Knowing how to make a site will give me the opportunity to make one for my future class that my students and their parents can refer to to review the learning that has been going on in class. It is a great way to involve parents and help students remember what has been learned.

Making the site was familiar with the process of designing the old online portfolio I had in Taskstream. Having the google site layout familiar to it was helpful to keep me from getting confused and lost.
