Would you like to be able to give your students instant feedback on writing, tests, and quizzes? Would you like your students to be able to continue their learning and have access to their work both in and out of school? Google Apps and Docs (Education Edition) provides both students and teachers with endless opportunities to accomplish all of these objectives.
In this workshop, you will learn about how many of the tools in Google Apps and Docs have been used to enhance student learning at the middle school level.
