Re: How Do You Make Your Website?

We've used custom-coded sites and Wordpress in the past. I prefer Wordpress.

To those saying that you want students to custom-code a site starting from a 0 byte text file, that's fine, and I'm not arguing against the fact that they'll learn a lot from the experience. In fact, they'll gain a good amount of useful experience. What goes into creating a CMS/website, coding under pressure, and everything in between.

But let's not get into the mindset that using Wordpress or Drupal or Joomla is not a valuable learning experience, either. A lot can be learned from both.
