Top Ten

Google Scholar

This is a wonderful resource to give students. This would help teach students where to get a good

resource and what qualities a good resource would have.

Google Squared

I used this link with every subject and there was something available. I think that this would be a

wonderful asset for any classroom.

8Picasa

This would be a wonderful asset for the classroom. The teacher could control images being used in the classroom as well as the endless possibilities. Some

uses could be newsletters, reports, and subject albums.

7

Google Books

This would be good for quick resources for classroom research. This would help the student

narrow their search field.

6

Google Groups

Students will be able to collaborate outside the classroom with more ease. Collaboration is a must this day and time. Students would be able to share

materials for a class project.

5

Google Custom Search Engine

This is a wonderful tool for any teacher. A custom search engine can be created for your students to

search.

4

Google Mobile Application

The students and teachers can use this technology to do quick searches to increase learning.

3Access Google Books

This would be great for the classroom teacher to use the Androids and iphones to their advantage. The

teacher can assign on line books for the students to read and they can be accessed by other technology

as well.

2

Google Wave

This would be a great communication tool for any school. Teachers and administrators can work and

collaborate together on projects.

I feel that this would be a wonderful way to communicate with the masses whether that is the

parent or the student.
