Google Calendar for Life and your class
Okay so yes Google rocks. And I know it, I have the g1 phone which is all about google stuff. Google calendar currently keep all my events and happens right in my hand. It gives great alert reminders when I am running behind. Google reader is bomb because you can read books right on screen. I have been using this tool for a while now and loving it more and more. I love to read so I just turn my phone on and get on google reader and I can browse books they have listed find ratings the whole nine yards. Another cool thing is that you can even share your calendar, so if someone wants to know what your up just send it to them. I am sure you could use google reader in class by allowing your students to sign up and reads some book on it. You could also set up a google calendar to remind them of test dates and quizes. It could be like a virtual assigment notebook everyone could be signed up for.
This is a very cool button that I just created to allow graduate students to click on to add this SGA Grad. Forum to their calendars. It's a virtual invitation which I think is mega cool! I actually really want the graduate students in our class to click on this button because I need to know what graduate students want SGA to do for them. This Activity was fun and of great use. Can't wait to find more creative ways to intergrate this into my classroom.

I agree! I would be lost without google. I use it all the time, especially when I have a brain cramp and cannot remember anything! haha It happens weekly for me during school!!
ReplyDeleteI'm all about Google, too! I love the calendar, Google Scholar, Google reader, and just about everything else it has to offer. It offers such quick and easy solutions when your in a pinch and need help quickly! I'm a bit behind on the phone, though. I've had the same cell phone for at least five years...in other words it's ancient! It doesn't do all the Google stuff so it'll be great when I can update!
