Weebly is company that helps people to have a web presence, quickly and easily. They offer free sites for pages and blogs and the tools to individualise your space. You can include elements like; videos, photo galleries, maps, forums, contact forms, surveys and much more. It is just as easy creating the website as it was creating a wiki or blog. Even though there are more elements that can be added in the website.
The website is predominantly a one way medium. It does not offer the same level of interactiveness that a blog and especially a wiki will allow. Whether student or teacher the use of the three ICTs (blog, wiki or website) is so similar that the knowledge of using one is transferable to the others. As a teacher, the choice of which tool to use is dependent on the outcome you wish to achieve.
I think I will tinker with the website when I have some time. As a static site I think it will be useful as an information source for the class activity that term or year. Hmmm?
This is a link to my Weebly website (it is still under construction).
