Create a Classroom Website with Google Sites

Communicating with students and parents is more crucial now than ever before, and the ways in which we do that are ever-changing.  One of the best ways to reach a large audience of parents, peers, and students is by creating a class, organization, or school website.

Creating a school or classroom website has never been easier with Google Sites.  This format allows users to incorporate video, slide shows, presentations and calendars into their site.  Users can control access to their site, as well, which is useful for educators.

Here are just a few of the benefits of a Google Site:

  • Ability to customize your site
  • Adjust privacy settings, making your site as public or private as you desire
  • Organize content through sub-pages
  • Choose from 3 page types:  file cabinet, announcements, or webpage
  • Maintain a central location for both web-based content and offline files
  • Excellent repository of online guides, manuals, and tutorials at Google Sites Help

Ready to take the leap into 21st century communication?  Log into Google Sites at https://www.google.com/accounts/NewAccount?service=jotspot&continue.  Click the “Create Site” button and with a few clicks your site will be off and running!
