I took this class the first semester that I was enrolled, and I wish I hadn't. Out of all of my classes this one seemed to be the most truly collaborative because it came naturally. I looked forward to going to the discussion boards each day to see what solutions my classmates had suggest and to help others through a difficult bit of code. I had recently lost much of the work that I had done for my personal class website because the district had changed providers. While all of my content was sent to me in nice zipped files, I had lost all of the organization. For the class project I decided to recreate the organization by hand coding a website that mimicked the style of the new web provider that the district had chosen. When completed I figured that it could be hosted on the MU server until I found a more suitable place. I had even begun directing students to the site for help with assignments. Unfortunately, the university discontinued its use of the server, and I currently have a folder sitting on Google Drive. There are some lovely documents that look like this ,

<!DOCTYPE html><html lang="en"><head><title>Mr. Holden's Class Pilot Site</title><meta charset="utf-8"><link rel="stylesheet" href="holden.css" >but that is little help to my students. The district has yet another web hosting service that just started at the end of the school year. I am hoping that it has the ability to support HTML.

I have mixed feelings about not hand coding this portfolio. While I would love to have the flexibility to design the page exactly as I want, using Google sites is definitely less time consuming. Since I did not have any immediately obvious permanent options for hosting my own code the point is moot, but someday student should be able to access my course content on something that looks like this.
