Tool #4

Google Docs is a great tool to have when collaborating with others.  The live editing feature keeps documents organized and allows for the most up to date document to be the one that each person uses. With the number of documents that are emailed within our Kindergarten team, google docs could help keep them organized and updated in one place.  I also noticed that there is a translation option to use on the documents.  This would help save time for the bilingual classes that need documents edited in to other languages.  I do wonder how accurate the translation would be.

As far as goole app uses for the kids, I would like to see what other teachers have done in using videos and images with them.  I do have a number of kids that would be interested in creating projects on the computer, but I would definitely need to research some ideas for them.
