I hope everyone had a great holiday weekend and continues to rest and relax, getting ready for a new year. I came across a post on The Innovative Educator and I thought it was another good reminder to check out Google Chrome all of the great resources that Google Apps for Education provides.
It is really quick and easy to install Chrome as your browser. It is becoming a very popular browser choice because of its speed and ease of use. As this post explains, it also allows you to add extensions and apps that are tied right to your browser. Many of these have great applications in the classroom. I will be coming to faculty meetings early in the new year and demonstrate why everyone should be aware of Google Chrome and Google Apps!
Remember that all faculty and students now have a mohonasen.net google/gmail account- just contact Jamie to activate yours. I also strongly recommend creating an iGoogle page and then setting it as your home page on any computer you use. Its kind of like creating a personal "home" on the web where you can keep yourself organized. Play around with these tools this week and see what you think...
Enjoy the rest of the vacation!
