SiteKreator
After having explored SiteKreator, our group of Roadrunners experienced marginal success with the program. The interface is clunky and not always intuitive. An example is when you click on Edit, you do not get to edit already created text - instead, you have to click on the T or Properties to view and edit the existing text. You are not able to change font type or color of text either.
Those of us with Windows machines were able to upload pictures while those with Macs were unable to do so. After much trial and error, it was discovered that MACs can upload pictures by inserting a image rather than media. This program allowed the uploading of a SWF file, but the file would not run in the page. After some research, we discovered that SiteKreator does not allow mp3 files to be uploaded.
An interview of the exploration team can be found at the follwing URL can be found by clicking on the following link interview.
Here is the same audio interview with our thoughts about SiteKreator that has been embedded into the blog. This embedded file acts like an mp3 player.
- Artist: EdTech RoadRunners
- Title: sitekreator_review
- Length: 0:50 minutes (786.98 KB)
- Format: MP3 Mono 22kHz 128Kbps (CBR)
Here is an example of a site that was created by the Roadrunner group.
In our opinion, the communication and collaboration that we want to foster through SiteKreator can be accomplished more easily using Google docs and Spreadsheets, Google web or Blogger.
