    Keep students connected to your curriculum from home and back. Posting assignments and lessons online can help students catch up or review if they are absent from school. And giving students "all the time" and "at anytime" access to the learning helps with time budgeting and life long learning skills.

  • the Chromebook is a unique class of personal computer that combines the functionality of a traditional notebook computer with the convenience of a pure-cloud client in a device the size of a netbook.
  • "They're easy to set up: Just press 'control, alt, e,' and they're ready for a student," Millin says. "And they're easy to administer. There's no worry about students downloading viruses or unwanted software. Plus, the management console permits blacklisting sites or apps and enables pushing specific apps to specific devices."
  • "We found that the Chromebook's more reliable operation significantly reduced time lost in the classroom due to PC downtime, help desk calls and operating system maintenance,"

  • As long as students have Google ­accounts, she says, "they can use a Chromebook, a lab PC or even the smartphone in their pocket."
  • Update Wi-Fi access. "Have sufficient bandwidth to keep your students from getting frustrated,"
  • Commit to Google Apps for Education.

  • Google Apps Premier Edition is a collection of office tools for businesses -- word processor, spreadsheet, e-mail, calendar and web page creator -- all of which are accessible through a web browser. Pricing is set at $50 per user per year, less expensive than Microsoft Office but with much the same functionality. Microsoft has its own web-based suite of tools in Office Live, but the company's offering doesn't match Google's. And Google isn't going after Office Live, it's going after Office.

  • how do we start to build and grow our PLN's beyond those who are already plugged in? I would love to access the incredible wealth of history teaching experience that is spread across our country, and I personally believe that tools like blogs and twitter are a powerful way to share and deepen our practice.

    It would be nice to see Google offer an app specifically designed for educator collaboration, as well as a place to discover great educational content and lessons. Hopefully Google Wave will serve as a great platform for teachers to collaborate, sharing both ideas and content.

  • it's also about sharing with the right people. Circles will allow what educational consultant Tom Barnett calls "targeted sharing," something that will be great for specific classes and topics

  • teachers are already talking about the possibility of not just face-to-face video conversation but the potential for integration of whiteboards, screen-sharing, Google Docs, and other collaborative tools
