Thing 10

Well I set up a Google Document. I have heard about this several times but had never tried it. I think it has great possibilities. I think it would work more for upper elementary, middle, and high schiool. In this program you can access and work on a document from anycomputer without having to save it to a flash drive. There are many benefits to Google Doc's, including but not limited to;
Promote group collaboration
Keep track of grades, attendance, or any other data
Facilitate writing as a process by encouraging students to write in a document shared with you
Create quizzes and tests using spreadsheets forms
Encourage collaborative presentation skills by asking your students to work together on a shared presentation
Maintain, update and share lesson plans
It's definetly worth the second look!
