    Hi Laurie, Google+ is a new social network from Google. If you have an account (they are limiting access at the moment) you can use this link to create a short address, instead of a bunch of numbers google gave you.

The Wilderness Downtown - 47 views

  •  
     Chrome Experiments of fun with html5 are meant to show off the clean and fast beauty of the new code.  Of  course Google wants you to see it in Chrome for full effect, and I would encourage that as Chrome is an easy and responsive browser, you try it out.  The Wilderness Downtown is a great example of an interactive and connected multimedia experience that mashes together Google Maps and Earth with a driving tune to blast you to your past.  Go in and enter your old address and feel the nostalgia of swooping over your childhood home with a soundtrack and pacing just for you. Students are making digital stories.  They may not be writing html5 apps, but they are accessing, or can access, many sources of media to deepen their message.  A showing of a story like what you help create with The Wilderness Downtown experiment can inspire students to consider how they can use everyday tools like Google Earth to connect with an audience. Just go to http://www.thewildernessdowntown.com/ and type in your address.

Collaborative Learning with Google Docs - The Learner's Way - 72 views

  •  
    Something is missing from my classroom lately and I am quite happy to have seen it disappear. It is the traditional line at the teacher's desk formed by students awaiting feedback on a recently completed piece of writing. What has replaced this is our use of Google Docs and Slides as a tool for the collaborative development of ideas from initial thinking and strategising through to final editing and refinement. It has introduced a new workflow to the class that both streamlines the process of providing feedback, allows for greater detail and transforms the process into one that is richly collaborative.

How are Educators Using Google Plus Hangouts? | MindShift - 72 views

  • As the name suggests, a “hangout” is an informal place, but that doesn’t mean that teaching and learning won’t happen there, of course. And as the show-and-tell on “Ask an Engineer” demonstrates, we’re just beginning to see the innovative ways in which Google+ will be used in educational settings. I asked those who follow me on Google Plus if they’re planning on using Hangouts with their students in the Fall, and it’s clear that we’ll see office hours, collaborative grading sessions, and the like occur via the new video conferencing tool.

    What did you use to access this site? I used Google Chrome, as suggested on the site, but every time I try to look at it, it refuses to load. I emailed Google to let them know, too.

    Hi Holly, you need to upgrade to the latest chrome beta. http://www.google.com/landing/chrome/beta/

    Sorry, I wasn't clear. I was using the latest edition (downloaded it yesterday). Well, I guess I'll just have to wait to see what Google says. Thanks anyway!
