Thanks to my daughter, Amber, for starring in this quick video commercial. She took my script and reworded it to be a little more accurate for her 16 year old language.
She really does hep me find information for use with my students and staff. I rely heavily on my own children to keep me in touch with what is expected of them at secondary schools. I am the only full time elementary technology teacher in our district and until this year we did not even have real technology classes at the middle schools in my region of the district.
Every year our staff has the panic rush to get the end of year awards ready for students. A few of them came n and worked with me and we set up the template and merge for them to use every year in Publisher. This last year I had a couple teachers come in to my lab to print their certificates and we discussed the use of a web site such as CertificateStreet.com versus the benefits of merging data extracted from our student database. After working through this system, I think they may have been using this site or one very similar to it.
The designs are very cute and easy to use, but I do find that I prefer to be able t have complete control over my publications and these templates do not allow for the images to be changed. In a pinch, I think I would use this site for a few certificates, but would not utilize it for 5 or more certificates.
I do like the ease of click and type. That makes it very friendly for the technologically illiterate.
