Comments from some of those who selected Google Sites as one of their Top 10 Tools

“Very easy to create a free website, particularly for light, internal audiences to collate materials around a given subject.:” Anon, UK

“This is an excellent eportfolio solution. It is also useful for creating workbooks” Anon, New Zealand

“I have moved my classes out of our LMS onto this open platform. Its been a much better experience for us all.” 2015

“provides the ability to create & publish accessible content”  Shannon Bosley 2013

“an easy way to get a web/wiki site up and running” Stephanie Horden

“This wiki based service provides the capacity to develop online-learning communities in ways that I feel surpass any of the efforts that many have been making to put the power of community/collaboration in peoples hands.  (ex. Microsoft has likely spent a great deal of time and money to enable the Innovative Teacher Network… yet it falls far short of the quality or potential of Google Sites.)”  Mark Arnold
