Visibility of Workspaces in the NEW Google Sites

by - 15:31

I've been experimenting with both the NEW Google Sites and Workspaces within the site for my JumpStart program.  This includes identifying whether the NEW Google Sites, with all of it's updates, has the same functionality as the Classic Google Sites.  This also includes identifying whether the Workspace is VISIBLE within the NEW Google Site, which also needs to be VISIBLE.

At this stage I have been able to set up the NEW Google Site to include pages and subpages.  

  • I've embedded a YouTube clip onto the homepage.  
  • The main pages immediately create a navigation bar at the top of the site.  
  • I have easily embedded a Course Overview (Google drawing), Year Level Calendar (Google Calendar), and separate pages for each Project or Standard.  
  • The Project page includes the Project Instructions (Google document).  
  • There is a subpage within the Project main page, for the Project Workspace (URL link).  

As long as each of the embedded items are VISIBLE, eg. the calendar, documents, drawings, workspace, youtube clip etc, and the site itself is VISIBLE, then all of the work is completely VISIBLE within the NEW Google Site.

The following video shows and explains the information outlined above.

    1. Thanks Lenva. I've been pleasantly surprised with the speed at which the NEW Google Sites can be produced, but particularly, with a lot of the original functions from the Classic Sites.
