Prerequisites

Workshop‎ > ‎

There are no educational prerequisites for this workshop.

There will be hands-on periods where you'll be working on creating a site.

Technical Prerequisites - Please be prepared with the following:

Google Account

Verify you can sign in, test at www.google.com or sites.google.com
If you don't have an account you can obtain one for free at: https://accounts.google.com/SignUp *

Bring Your Laptop - with a fully charged battery (there won't be many outlets) and confirm that you have wifi access in our meeting room.

Browser - editing Google Sites requires modern browser as defined here: https://support.google.com/a/answer/33864

If you' re not sure, perform our quick Browser Test.
(beware a Windows XP system running an old version of Firefox doesn't work here).

Optional:

Photos - Bring a couple photos on your computer – as samples to work with (preferable the file sizes aren't too big, < 200K so we don't overwhelm the Wifi).
Photos - You may also want to add the photos into your Picasa Web Albums / Google + Photos at: http://picasaweb.google.com
Google Drive – have a couple sample files – a document, sheet, or something. We'll use these samples to experiment with embedding items into webpages. drive.google.com

* You can sign up for a Google account without creating a new gmail email address. You can use any existing email address (bob@comcast.net, etc.) similar to creating an account at other websites such as Shutterfly.
