As a teacher, you have two choices for delivering this lesson: teacher-assigned or student-paced.
Student-paced option: Go to the "Build a Portfolio with Google Sites" website to copy/paste the URL, then send that URL to students. Students will go to the lesson and pick the blue START button to begin.
Teacher-assigned options: The first option is to create a course within the Applied Digital Skills website. Simply click to create a class, and then send the class Join Code to students (this is best for teachers who do not have access to Google Classroom or use another LMS system).
