A Google site is a tool found in Google’s nonprofit resources that allows users to display a variety of information in one place, which can be videos, slide shows, calendars, presentations, attachments and text. You can share it so small groups can view it, or for the entire world to see it. You can always control who has access to your site. To start your own Google site you have to sign in to your Google account if you do not have one you will have to sign up for one at www.Google.com. Once you have signed in or set up your account you have to click on create a site. Then you will enter your sites name and URL as well as an optional description of the site, after that select one of the sharing options; “Everyone can view this site” or “Only people I specify choose can view this site”. Then pick a theme for your site that will go with your organization colors. You don’t have to worry about choosing the right theme at this time because you can change settings at anytime. Once you have created your personal website you can create a new page by clicking the create page button. Then after you’re done doing that all you have to do is name your page and select the type of page you want, for example, web page, dashboard, announcement, file cabinet, or list. Aglak Grinsted a scientist/teacher likes to use Google’s sites because he uses it to present research of him and his collaborators. It allows him to maintain a personal presence on the web that he can take wherever he goes. I think this would be a constructive learning because the learner interprets and processes what they receive to create knowledge for everybody else.
