This week in class i didnt think that google had anything left to offer. I was really wrong. The world of google is endless in my eyes. We learned about google’s advanced search, and google docs. Also we learned about Rss feeds and how they can help in the classroom and open source applications.
Google docs is probably the best thing that you could use in a classroom. It has everything that you need to succeed. It has microsoft word, powerpoint, spreadsheet and many more all packed into one site. The amazing thing about google docs is that you can share it with anyone that you like so that many people can make changes to one document from many different places. This can help if you have a group project and you have scheduling problems about getting together. With google’s advance search you can find the best sources to what you are looking for. When you search on google you usually dont find the best you find the easiest found sites. With advanced search you could put in a domain or site or even putting in quotes would help you find the best site to use.
With Rss feeds you can get information from one site and it will transfer you to other sites to get more information. I still need to learn more about rss feeds and open source applications still.
