Before I begin my post on Google Docs, I thought I would begin by explaining what ICT stands for. In my last post, I started to call my class by its real name, rather then computers. As many of you already know, ICT stands for Information Communication Technology. Which totally makes sense, and also makes me wonder how I couldn't figure that one out on my own.
Back to Google Docs... Google Docs are online documents (spreadsheets, presentations, etc) that are created for multiple people to work on and share simultaneously. I really like them. I think they are a great tool for working together on any sort of group project. In a faculty like Education, group work is very, very common and resources like this are quite beneficial. When using Google Docs, the people working on each document are able to do so at their own leisure. Group work can be difficult, especially when there are many people involved. Rather than planning a specific time to get together, people are able to add or edit information when it is convenient for them.
