I have a created a website,
"Coach Blevins' World of PE" that is an example of a website I might have while teaching. I can definitely see how this would benefit my students. Although a lot of creating the website came naturally, I also ran into a few problems. I found that when I tried to add a lot of the gadgets, they wouldn't work. There would simply be a blank spot on my page where the gadget should have gone. This got really annoying, so I simply deleted them and added a few that actually worked. I noticed that the ones specifically created by google worked. Another problem I ran into was similar. I made a
playlist on
playlist.com, the same place I made the
playlist for the one on this blog. I copied the embed code and pasted it into the html as I did with many other things on my pages, but this too did not work. There was simply a blank spot where it should have gone. I may try and work on that again at some point. A
playlist isn't essential. Also, it took me awhile to figure out how to embed my
Glogster poster. I then realized you go to the "html" button and paste in the embed code. That works for many other things such as videos, and
playlists (obviously only sometimes). Overall, everything else was pretty self-explanatory.
Embedding the
calendar wasn't too difficult. I did have to figure out how to create a link to my google document. In Google Docs you have to go to "Share" then there is an option to get the link to the page. Then you can simply create a link on the
web page that will go to your google document.
