Easily manage student sites and e-portfolios with siteMaestro

This is another excellent tool that has been created by New Visions Cloud Lab, and +Andrew Stillman in particular.  I read about this in the GEG NZ group and was perfect timing as I was just about to launch into using Google sites as a way for my Tu Tane students to record their journey towards becoming a good man.

I wanted each student to have their own site to use, and for me to be able to check on the sites and any edits or additions from a central location - siteMaestro allows you to do this and it isn't that tricky to set up, all you need is a site that you'd like the students to use, and a list of their email addresses!  It's so easy I made a video of it below.  The link to the site to install the Add-on is here.

Overall I think it is a brilliant management tool when allowing students the power of using collaborative sites in their own learning journey.
