This site contains instructions for using Google Sites to develop an online portfolio for Graduation with Leadership Distinction (GLD) from the University of South Carolina. They were designed to also be helpful to anyone using Google Sites to create a web site.

You should find the instructions up-to-date, but features do change from time-to-time. Some of the links on the site show earlier versions of Google Sites. The feature being described is probably still in the program, but it may look a bit different. Please let me know if you discover any information that is more confusing than useful or if I need to add to or update any areas of the site. Thank you very much.
