A Community to Share Your Games, Activities and Workouts

  Hello all.  A Change-Up This blog post is going to be a little different. I was glad to hear from Dave, that a website was going to be difficult to create and was very ambitious. After all of my prior research and working on my website, I thought the EXACT SAME THING. It definitely was getting super difficult for me and I was getting frustrated. SO I have decided to take a step back and reevaluate what I want to do for my genius hour.  The change: Instead of actually creating a website, I will now just research and state things that go into creating one. I will also go into what I would want in my website.  Starting Over Since I will kind of be starting over, I am going to restate some aspects that goes into creating one.  1. First, you have to figure out what kind of website you want to create. Here are 10 popular types of websites:  https://www.wix.com/blog/2020/12/types-of-websites/  However, I am going...

  Welcome back everyone!! This week I have decided to take a little break from all the research and work that I have been doing. I will be back and better than ever next week. Stay tuned for more...

  For this weeks blog research, I spend majority of thy time looking up more videos on making websites as I wanted to know what else I could add to my community online. I did not touch my website this week as I just wanted to look at more options that I had.  Some of the videos I looked at were: 1. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hshYJzuOlN4&list=RDCMUCx96GiJ3qYw2sHccPp5dY_g&index=13  2. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xB5NXSW09V8&list=RDCMUCx96GiJ3qYw2sHccPp5dY_g&index=18  3. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVMbxzZWKDs&list=RDCMUCx96GiJ3qYw2sHccPp5dY_g&index=23 4. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u0nYSPoElmk&list=RDCMUCx96GiJ3qYw2sHccPp5dY_g&index=29 I learned more about the mobile app of wix and creating websites and what it offers. I think if I want to create a mobile friendly website I might come into some problems and I am not sure whether I will have t...

 Oh man... when I say learning how to build a website is time consuming, it is definitely an understatement. Since I am not very tech savvy I had to first watch some more YouTube videos and look at more articles. This time I searched "how to build a community website", therefore I was able to understand more of what a community website entailed and looked like. I looked at the following websites and YouTube videos:  1.  https://blog.hubspot.com/marketing/online-community-launch 2.    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ij-tnAFHSYs 3.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=emCWuXO2QqY Then, I was stuck in between using palapa and wix to build a website however I found out that you have to pay for palapa and the free trial was only 14 days. However, there are very good reviews about wix therefore I knew it was safe to use and quite easy to navigate although I still struggled a little bit. On my new website I create and designed my home page, about page, contact page an...

Doing my genius hour research really put my project into perspective this week. I learned that creating a website and creating a project is a more difficult than I thought. I already struggle with technology and I realized that there are many steps to creating a website. I first looked up other websites that have similar ideas and concepts to mine. This way I am able to figure out what I like and what I don't like. I found a website titled "The Best Social Networks for Teachers To Grow Their PLNs and here I found websites that teachers are able to share their resources to teachers all around the world. I found some websites that provide educators webinars, certificates and professional learning. However, when I kept diving deep into my project, I wanted to focus on something more personal. This includes more of a private group, where you have to allow people to join. In my PE class we often talk about sharing our...

Hello everyone!! My name is Ariana Mota and welcome to my blog!  Some themes that I am considering for my blog is surrounding physical activity and sports. I want to create a website or some sort of space to create a community for physical educators. This will be a space where they can share their activities or games and workouts that they liked teaching and what their students responded to the most. As well as maybe some ideas surrounding how to get more people involved in physical activity. Another theme I was considering was having a space for people who enjoy home workouts or activities. Considering the times we live in where you have to find physical activity and be motivated to participate in physical activity at home I think it would be beneficial to create a website or space where you can post your workouts online for other people to follow, or to also do on their own time.. I want to create a genius idea surrounding physical activity because this is something that I am pas...
