Task 5.1

Joomla is a wonderful content management system, I tried it a few years ago and it is very powerful. On the other hand, I think there are simpler solutions for teachers like WordPress, which although it is a blogging system, also implements a basic CMS.


Joomla implements a menu system for a little complex. If you do not need a very complex website, I prefer Wordpress, and if you need a sophisticated website, you can try Drupal.


This CMS has many add-ons and extensions, you can customize the look from the large list of templates and there are many resources to help you on the Internet.

Task 5.3

I work as an IT teacher, my students sometimes have to write in a blog, they can program a simple website and they use Moodle on a daily basis. I have a prefered CMS for every situation. When I need to create a fast website or blog to publish some information they can use "Google Sites", "Wordpress" or "Blogger" On the other hand "Moodle" is the best solution for LMS, I tried "Google Classroom" and although it is very simple, it still lacks power. We do not use Drupal or Joomla CMS, there are for professional and powerful solutions.  Students learn basic HTML and CSS to undestand some basic concepts. In my opinion is very important that they know how these systems works internally.
