Week 2- Going Google

I hope the activities of week 1 have given you a taste for what web tools really have to offer.  Several of you sought me out for some help via email or in person, keep doing it.  If you need me, I'm just a click away.

Week 2 is all about Google.  You will explore Google Apps for Education.  Spending your exploration time completing a scavenger hunt will acquaint you with the many features of Google Apps for Education.  From there, you will get "under the hood" of your Google Chrome Browser.

Have fun with Google.  I'm "Giddy for Google" and I think it's contagious.

As we progress through the course, please remember to check off the activities on the tracking spreadsheet. A few of you have added your blog address to the tracking spreadsheet, please do so once you have started your blog.  We will use this to add the blogs to the blog list for this main class blog (look to the right).  Finally, keep reading each other's posts.  You'll learn a lot from the reflections and comments shared via our classroom blogging community.  Comment on at least three blogs and try to spread your comments around the class.
