Practical Ed Tech Tip of the Week – Digital Portfolios & Page Level Permissions in Google Sites

Page-level permissions in Google Sites allows the creator of a site to share and give editing access to specific pages within a site rather than giving access to edit the entire site. To use page-level permissions open your Google Site editor then click “enable page-level permissions.” With page-level permissions activated you can share and allow editing for each page individually. I created the following video to demonstrate how you can use page-level permissions to manage a group digital portfolio.
