Google Docs

Describe how you could use each of the Google applications discussed tonight in a classroom setting.

• Google Calender could be very useful for scheduling things for your students, faculty, or staff members, or even sporting events. This tool would be very helpful and useful for anyone who is unorganized like myself. I will most likely use this tool in the future.
• Igoogle- would be very useful for those who can't afford the word processing programs because it uses the tools very similar to that used on windows if not exact. I would instruct my lesser fortunate students who have access to a library to use such programs to do assignments if I were to assign them one for a class
• Picaso- is very useful for any blog site, or networking site. I could definity use this application for my classes and online resumes to show prospecting principals who I am and how I work with the kids In a gym class.
• Knol- Is alot like wiki I could use it for personal experiences and knowledge on certain issues. I could have my students post their assignment or research projects on this site so that they could late be used as an example for students who come through my class again. This site is a good tool for random pieces of knowledge but it is not exactly credible.
