Week 3: My Own Website!

These past few days we have been working on our own personal websites. It has been an interesting project that's for sure. I never imagined I would be able to create my own functional website. It is a ton of work to make a quality functional website, thankfully the website I have been using (weebly) is very user friendly.

I decided to make my website a classroom website. Obviously i don't have my own classroom yet, hopefully in a few years i will, but for now I'm just making a site for an imaginary classroom. So far I have completed my about me page, and added a calender, and created most of the pages i want on my site. Now i just have to go in and add all the content i want. Like i said before i never imagined i would make my own site, or blog for that matter, so the ICT class has really helped. Before this class i never would have known how to add html to sites, and to add permalinks into my posts. The things i have learned in ICT have been great because everything i learnt, i can use in the future.This class has definitely helped me out and i feel a lot more confident already in my technology skills. One of the main reasons why i want to use technology in my classroom is because it is fun, and it is different then the same old boring pen and paper note taking. When kids get to actually do things like write a blog they have so much more fun in class and they learn more because they are having fun.

I don't have a lot of material on my blog, or website right now, so if you have any suggestions of what i should add or anything i should change, feel free to leave a comment.
