Google+Docs+Applications


 * I could see using this with IBEA to get a quick response. Sandy ||~ **Ideas for Implementation:** ||
 * This is a great way for students to share documents they may need in a group project. No longer are the days when a student says they can't work on something because their partner has it saved on a flash drive, their email, etc. Google Docs provides a ways for every group member to have access to the most current version of the group's work. ||
 * I could see myself using a Google Form to survey the technology skills of students. Also, a "getting to know you" type survey. ||
 * In my Business in Action course the class is divided into various departments and each department is responsible for different aspects of the business. Within each of the departments every document that is created for that particular department is shared with the other department members. For example, the balance sheet for the finance department is shared with all finance department members so everyone has current access to the most recent balance sheet at all times. ||
 * I'd like to use Google Forms to make a questionnaire to gather information from students in my Human Relations class. We look at the advantages of diversity when talking about teamwork, and this would be a good way to show the variety of backgrounds and life experiences the students bring to the class.

FORMS: great for a "ticket into the room" or a "ticket out of the room". Gets kids focused in order to BEGIN class....gives feedback about the class period as they'd leave it!

Forms: I give the kids a beginning surevey to collect some general information about them, then ask some specific questions about why they took the class, hope to gain, etc. Deb C ||
 * I've used the Forms portion of Google Docs for the students to survey their peers during the market research portion of entrepreneurship class. Since the data is calculated automatically, it really saves time and allows you to focus on the results and what they mean rather than doing hand calculations and creating charts & graphs individually.
