Google Page CreatorWith Google Page Creator, you can create functional, attractive web pages in just minutes—without having to learn code. You can customize your pages using a variety of styles, fonts, and background colors, and your pages can include images and links to other web pages. We've designed Page Creator to be simple to use—there's no need to download anything to get started, and you can publish the pages you create with just one click. And perhaps best of all, Google hosts your pages for free. Google Page Creator can make you more effective in and out of class. Using Page Creator, for instance, you might build a page detailing your lesson plans, and add a link to your page from your school's website so that other teachers can learn from your experience. In the classroom, you can use Page Creator to introduce students to computer science. Since Page Creator allows users to view the HTML code of the pages they build, students can see how editing HTML code changes the look and performance of their pages, instantly. Google Page Creator can make it easier for students to share information about the things that really matter to them. If a student is working towards a Boy Scout merit badge, for instance, he might create a page detailing his progress. If a student is captain of the swim team, she might create a page discussing past swim meets and previewing upcoming opponents. With Google Page Creator, students can exercise their creativity at the same time as they're developing valuable web publishing skills.

I teach special education and am always looking for ways to engage my students. My students respond well to technology and I have worked to incorporate it on a more regular basis. I had always wanted to create a class webpage but found the task too daunting to undertake. This semester, however, I learned how to design a webpage using page creator. My page offers resources for students, parents and other educators. On the webpage, students have access to a multitude of interactive educational games. In addition, parents have resources available to them dealing with issues in special education. The page is a great way to involve both students and parents with classroom activities. It has also made communication easier because parents are provided the most update information regarding school happenings. Parents no longer have to worry if their child forgets to give them the school newsletter. Rather, they can access the information via the website.
