Thing 12

I took the intel course this summer so I was already using several of the google tools. I really like google docs. You can share a document and have several people working on one document at the same time but at different locations. It is so amazing. I have thought about using this for discussions in class. You can set your kids up in groups and have them work on documents that you set to share (kwl charts, thinking maps, etc.) I also played with the calendar. That is a pretty good thing also.. BUT I have so many calendars that I already use at the moment. You can have too much of a good thing. What I really like for personal use is the homepage- igoogle. It is great. I set it up so that I get new recipes daily as well as keep up with what is going on in sports and entertainment. I look forward to continuing adding gadgets and things to this page.
