Googlios

Googlios is another name for Google Sites. They are using the term Googlios to advertise Google Sites as an e-portfolio. I found Google sites to be frustrating when I was trying to get it to do what I wanted it to do. When I just experimented with the different types of items I could insert in it, it was easy to use. You just have to go with the format and design that they have it set up for. Even though my site indicates it is for Global Issues, it is simply a collection of documents that have been put in to experiment with the site. I included one of each type of document that could be inserted. I found that as long as I had all of the items in my personal account, it was easy to use. Including things from other sources and other accounts was very cumbersome. In other words, it would be easy for students to put their own documents into a Google Site. It was difficult for a teacher to put items from student accounts into a Google Site. If you are going to make a classroom site, the students need to put in their own documents.
