Weebly: Class Schedule Document
Class Schedule Document One of the requirements for teachers in our district is the posting of their class schedule on their web site. Most teachers use a table to create their class schedule. Weebly does not easily support tables but it does support the embedding of documents into pages. This makes it easy for teachers to quickly update their class schedule without too much difficulty. Teachers can create their schedule in their favorite program like Word or Pages and export the final schedule to a PDF document. This is the first step so let’s see how to export your schedule as a PDF in either Word or Pages.
