Blog #1

Today was very interesting. I enjoyed learning about all the possibilities on Google! I use it as a search engine all the time, but had no idea of everything else it had! I can see using the docs and presentation products with my students. They often have difficulty organizing their work when working on group projects. I can see this as a way to allow them all to work on it at home, yet save it to a central place that they can all access. I also look forward to using it as a teacher...especially the notebook. I think I could make hotlists there for the students to use when doing internet research. Then I could just copy and paste the sites instead of having to retype them all!
I also like the VOKI! I plan on using this with my students for presenting their stories or reports. What a fun way to engage them! I also want to use the one I made today on my web page.
I haven't ever found much on youtube so I will be interested in seeing what others come up with, and if it is something I could incorporate into my teaching. Meanwhile I will continue to browse.
