5/4/17 Website Reflection

• Reflect on your experience with Weebly or Wix.  Did you enjoy building your own website?  Did you find it easy, hard, etc...  Now that you know these free/low cost options exist, would you use a tool like this to create a website in the future?
• After reviewing the websites of 10 of your classmates, reflect on your TWO favorites
• Why did you like these websites so much? 

I first used Weebly but I had trouble with it so I switched to Wix and it was a lot easier to use. I enjoyed building my own website because I could pick whatever I wanted and I was able to make it look like what I wanted. After switching to Wix I thought that making the website was very easy and I like how the both offered several different layout options. In the future if I ever need to make a website I would definitely use Wix because it was very easy to do. 

I thought Bryn D and Maddie B's website were the best out of the ones I looked at because they were very colorful and very well organized.

4/27/17 Website Selection

Have you ever created a website before?  If yes, what technology did you use?  HTML, Weebly, Wix, etc.?  Tell me about your experience....  then continue below

I have never created a website before. I have used websites created by people, my Spanish teacher and modern world teacher have used weebly to create their own websites and they are very easy to use. They have their own website linked to their page on the Blue Valley Website. I haven't ever had the need to create a website before but I'm excited to learn because it seems like a really useful thing to know how to do. I chose to use weebly because I thought that all the layouts that they first showed were really nice and creative. I've seen teachers use it before and I think it will be really easy to figure out. They offer many different styles of websites and also great examples to showcase the creativity that the website offers. I am doing my project for the Blue Valley Girls Soccer program.

Blog Post: 4/18 Favorite New Apps

Using your notes sheet from our class "App Investigation" presentations last week, select FIVE apps that you do NOT currently use, but now might download.  Create a table with the following information & include it in your blog post. 

Please also include a reflection on the project overall.  Did you enjoy this project?  Why/Why not?


Reflection:

I enjoyed this project because I liked how we were allowed to choose our own topic. I think it allowed students to be creative with their choices and learn new stuff. I also liked how only one person in each class could only do each app because then the presentations weren't repetitive and the information was always new. I also liked that most of the apps were relevant to students and their everyday life. Overall, I liked the project a lot and would recommend it to others because it had little restrictions and allowed everyone to do their own thing.
