resources, resources

I love collaborating with my colleagues.

Google Docs is a widely used tool for us in this arena. It makes so little work of having to form documents as a committee, take presentation notes, work on a policy with many people all at once, and also to share resources. The process eliminates so much wasted time. It's almost like a work-based chat room, but with the focus on creating and refining the document smoothly and efficiently. Kudos again to google!

Another resource shared today from our Science guy is Thinkfinity! We received an introductory training session, and two hours later, we're still playing with the applications on our SMARTboards. While the Art content was directed toward inclusion of Art education in other content areas :( the information is relevant, helpful, and timely.
