Google Doc
This week we had to create a google doc and create a resume for our peers to review. This task was easily for me because I already had my resume for the college of education saved on my computer so I was easily able to copy and past it into my google doc. (with of course some editing) Google docs are a great resource and allows several people to work on a document at the same time, allowing easy access for everyone involved. I thought creating the doc. was simply enough however I am still having trouble figuring out how to edit and see other peoples docs. I just posted my resume and have yet to get feedback on it, so once my peers start commenting I am sure I will be able to figure it out and it will begin to come easy. I really love the idea behind Google docs, its a great tool to have as a teacher. I think it would work great if teachers in the same school posted lesson plans and had fellow teachers comment and make changes to create an even better lesson plan. It would be a great place to also create a portfolio of lesson plans that other teachers (ones that you give access to) to see them as well. Google docs also work great from the student perspective; group projects will become easier to manage. Not everyone will have to get together in order to work on the project. Its all online for everything to see and make progress on!

I liked your idea about teachers using these to post lesson plans for other teachers to see! What a creative idea. I think that Google Docs is such a great tool and we will have many uses for it as future teachers!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Morgan that your idea to use Google Docs to post lesson plans is very creative! I hadn't really thought about using Google Docs in that way but after reading your blog post I put some thought into it and I think it would work great!
ReplyDeleteI agree with both of our fellow group members! I think Google Docs would be a great way to post lesson plans. I used google docs last year and only shared it with my teacher, but I think it is a great way to use it with other students or like we do...sharing with group members!
