PROJECT TITLE: Google Class Site

TECHNOLOGY STANDARDS ADDRESSED: The Google Classroom Site project addresses the following technology standards:


 * II. Communication Standard
 * III. Legal, Social, and Ethical Issues

DESCRIPTION: The Google Classroom site project has been used to share resources, show lesson objectives, give Warm-up activities and nightly sketchbook assignments to parents and students. In addition, students will be able the obtain project resources, procedures and skills taught in class and view outstanding work completed by fellow classmates. The site also offers other neat and exciting surprises to engage all who view and interact with the site.

REFLECTION: At the onset of this project, I had a little trouble getting motivated and deciding what content and how to create my site so that it fully benefited my students. After a weekend of playing with the different features of the site I began to really work on content and design of my site. With each new page I added to the site I began to think of other ways of utilizing what this assignment had to offer and found my self working on the site continuously. So far, I have inserted power points on lessons and for daily warm-up assignment which I update weekly; post due dates for projects; inserted a calender for sketchbook assignments, and much more. The only aspect of the project that I still struggle with is finding a video appropriate for the content of my site and inserting flaming text that still moves on various pages. Overall, this is something that I will continue to use, update, and explore. Enjoy Bellamy Space.
