Continuing with Google Docs

My class began writing topics last month using Google Docs. The comment stream has been instrumental in providing guidance and reminders for them to create their best 5 paragraph essay. Currently we have put our Google Docs writing assignment on hold to complete the county prompt. Students were bummed out when they realized it was back to paper and pencil. I see the Google Docs experience really helping them become skilled in the use of Google Docs for assignments. They are anticipating the return to Google Docs! Google Docs has brought excitement to a subject area that is usually boring and difficult to get them engaged in! Thank you technology leaders and facilitators for training and helping teachers move to the 21st Century classroom!
