Hi all,

I am looking for a WYSIWYG web creation tool to teach a basic 'Intro to the web' course. I am looking for a tool that is similar to iWeb or RapidWeaver and template based. I would like to exclude any software that is overburdened by buttons, boxes, etc. I wish to focus in usability not features.

Do you guys have any ideas? Thanks.
