Weebly

What was the assignment?

our assignment was to create a professional portfolio web page using weebly.com.

What did you like/dislike about assignment and the weebly.com software?

I liked the website because it was really user friendly. I especially like how you can post files. I also added a song to my page, as well as a fun crossword puzzle. The features were easy to use and the page is something I am really proud of. The only thing I did not like was that it sometimes took forever to load.

How would you compare/contrast a web page like this with a blog?

I liked the features like add a file, music, etc. I did not like the fact that the templates are limited. Also, in blogs people can log in and leave comments, which are important also. I guess they are equal since they both have their good and bad sides.

How would you use this as an educator in the future?

I think it's a great way to keep your class informed about assignments, or even just to introduce yourself to your class, or to introduce your class to the world. Wonderful if your class is working on a community project, for instance, and can show the world what they are doing. I really liked this site...I am going to create a weebly site for my ED471 instead of a blog.
