World History
I had a student tell me today that he was so happy I had helped him with Google Docs and that not only does he use it in every class, he can't imagine how he existed without it. While this video is for Google Apps (the paid version), you can do almost everything in the video for free. For example, I have the my kids' schedules on one of my calendars, my wife's on another and mine on the last one. About the only thing you can't do for free is to e-mail or give access to every teacher in the school or district. Beyond that you can do all of this. If you are into Google Docs or the power of cloud computing this 12 minute video is well worth it. I found this at FreeTech4Teachers.com , but I find most of my Google Docs info at the blog for it and in the upper right hand site of my account where it says "New Features."
