    I just love the way Google supports teachers and education. Companies like Google are shattering what was once limits in education! Their online tools are making impacts in all levels of education k-12 and higher ed!
  •  
    When I found out about Google in Education I was thrilled. Google provides so many opportunities and applications for everyone, not just teachers. It is a great tool to learn from and get classroom ideas. It definitely helps support any aspiring teacher, and helps benefit them in a positive way!

    I didn't know about Google in Education before this and I really like it! I think it's wonderful how Google is supporting educators along with students. This website is filled with great information and I will be looking back upon it in my future classroom for a resource. Thank you for sharing Nichol!

    Nice find Nichol! I don't think it could hurt anything to have someone like google getting behind teachers in education. Now granted, pretty much everything they are presenting here is something that is going to turn you on to a google product, but google makes some pretty great things so I don't think it's necessarily a bad thing that they do this. If you're going to put that many resources into helping teachers (and the option to help students as well) you might as well get a little something out of it yourself.

    Very cool! Love google and love the education aspect. Students know google and are comfortable with it. This is a great option for my classroom.

10 Signs of a 21st Century Learning Classroom - 1 views

3 Steps to Becoming a Coding Teacher | Edutopia - 1 views

  •  
    1. I could see myself using something like this with a future class. Right now, its all about access, access, access! (and I don't always have it) If I add this, I want to be able to do it more than a day or two every other week... 2. The resource is mostly for teacher use...it considers issues a teacher might want to consider before implementing coding in their curriculum, along with support issues they might need help with later. 3. There are other resources out there for teachers -- I have looked at code.org (for example) as they provide a lot of lesson plans/etc. that can be used by teachers in their classrooms.
  •  
    While I don't think I would used in my future classrooms per say. I am however interested in learning to code for myself. Also, having a 1st grader and a preschooler, I think this would be helpful to start teaching them to code. This resource is mainly for teacher use, but the curriculums listed on this site would be used by students. Another resource I have heard about through a coder friend is DeltaVCode 101 course. I know they are offering a class starting soon in CR very soon.
  •  
    This will be a helpful tool for me to use in my ELP classrooms. I have found that coding is an area of both interest and strength for many of my students. I have found that some like to stick with the apps and resources that they are comfortable with and others like to try new things. This will help me offer those students what they need.
