Google Docs Rock

As I continue my journey discovering not only the potential of blogging but also the components that really make it work as a resource I've now been introduced to Google Docs. They are similar to Microsoft Office but better in that you can share and collaborate with students or fellow teachers. I love the real-time feature that actually allows people to be working on the same document. As the teachers in the introductory video pointed out, they actually had students working on essays and poetry at the same time. And I found it interesting how one teacher observed that his students were doing this at 11 p.m. I put together a very basic spreadsheet but I plan to continue to explore these great tools for classroom applications.
