Editing Content & Adding Images
In the UW Catalyst Tools is a tool for creating web sites. Simple Site uses templates and fill-in-the-blank boxes to help you create web pages. Simple Site is similar to other template based systems to help users create web pages. Each school district in Washington state has its own approach to allowing teachers to put up web pages. One popular system, used by a number of school districts in western Washington is SWIFT. This makes it easy for teachers to post web pages and ensures that all the web pages are similar in design.
