Thing 7: Google Tools

This is great,,,I did not realize that Google offered so many features! I just created my homepage using igoogle, personalized for my interests. I feel so empowered! Google docs would be great for educators and students to access, share and edit products. I can see how this would enhance collaboration between teachers and students. Group work or projects could be done on-line and require fewer face to face meetings. I also explored Atomic Learning, which was new to me. The tutorials would be effective to demonstrate technology applications to students...and to spend more time creating a product rather learning how to use the technology. Google calendar could be used to create a class calendar of events to keep students and parents informed. Definitely worth exploring more!
