Thursday we will be finishing up with our business letter portion of the word processing unit. The last activity we will do in this unit is our cloud computing document. Students will be using their school google accounts to collaboratively put together a news-letter that reviews technology that they are familiar with. We will look at some examples of technology reviews in class to see what they all have in common. Next, students will be told that they will work in groups putting their news-letter of reviews together, but they need to all be working on the same document at the same time. We will then look at our google drive and create/share a document with each other so they can accomplish this task.
Google drive is great for our students because it allows them to access their work form anywhere, and they can also share files so they may work with group members even if they are not in the same room as each other. We will be using google drive so students can collaborate together on various projects throughout the term.
Above is a video that explains how google drive works, and why it is so beneficial in today's day and age. Check it out!
