CSSU Workshop:  Using Google Docs in the Classroom

Learn how to use Google Docs, a free online word processor, spreadsheet, and presentation editor that allows you to create, store, share, and collaborate on documents with others. If you know how to use other word processors, spreadsheets, and presentation programs, you can easily use Google Docs. Instead of emailing files back and forth between collaborators, Google Docus allows people to work on a single version of a document together online. The chat feature on presentations makes it possible to create a “permeable classroom” by bringing experts into a lesson to interact with students online. You can also create web-based surveys to collect information from students, teachers, or parents. 

You will learn some tips and tricks to working with files from any computer; get and provide feedback from multiple collaborators, publish papers and presentations to a web audience, create quick and easy online forms and collect data into a spreadsheet, and much more. But most importantly this workshop will include examples of real classroom applications for Google Docs.
