So, I have been using Google docs for awhile now. This past week some colleagues and I were working on a list of students we needed to see for conferences. The original idea was to send out an email to all of the 7th grade teachers and have them check the names of the kids they wanted to see. Not wanting to put whomever was going to be compiling all the data under the gun and behind about 20 different emails, all with different answers, said that I'd compile the list on Google docs and then we could all edit it there.
So I made the list and send out the link. Well, it worked out really slick I got some really good feedback about how it worked. On teacher who isn't really tech savvy said that, "Even I could use it. It was really easy." So, hopefully with this success, I will slowly begin to convert some people over for when we have to do collaborative documents.
I was also talking to another teacher who lost their jump drive this week about Google docs and online storage ideas. I do feel terrible for her because she lost the only copy of some of her homework she is doing for some classes she is taking. Not cool. But she did say she had a Google account and would be looking into all of the stuff I had showed her.
