--Emily || b. we could use this to show/sell products made in our vocational departments (woods and metals). we often will build projects and sell to the public for extra money. both google docs and forms could be used to show public and ask for inputs on designs (give options in form)

This would be a great tool to showcase student work.....for example Art teachers in a district could display their student artwork for other teachers to see. This would also be a great tool for teachers to share lesson plans.

I can also see this being used when presenting our school improvement goals to our board and community. We already use a power point and this way we could all use the same for. Right now each subject is responsible for their subject and then forward their plan to the principal and then she puts it on a power point. This way we could see the work in progress and see what other subjects are doing and have them all look close to the same. --Emily

3c. Teachrs can use a blog and wiki to introduce new concepts and provide ongoing information for the unit. Assignments can be posted and questions about them can be answered by students and the teacher can moderate. Rod

3d) I love the idea of using the Google Form (survey) to get feedback from parents or students about what is currently going on in our district. We are always looking for input on what was taught, what is not offered that parents and students think should be. Short, simple, and easy to create and I can manage my own data. After having dealt with Survey Monkey, and others that we would have had to purchase, this is a no-brainer. Lisa Fleming

3. b & d I can see the Google survey form being used by my students to evaluate books we read. I usually ask for their input, but feel that they say good things just to please me, instead of giving me honest feedback. I think students would be more truthful if asked in a survey form. I too, like the idea of asking parents about what is going on in the school. I think the ablity to ask parents what they could contribute to help out our classes as "experts in the field" or mentors and tutors, would really encourage them to get involved in the school more. I think a short survey is something someone would complete and it would be easy to get the results instead of one person tallying written results or making phone calls. --Vicki

3a. The ability to have all of my news sources automatically come to me is fantastic. The RSS feed will be a great help in shortening the time you need to spend on the internet. How many countless hours do we waste surfing our favorites sites. I also imagine that companies and blogs will enjoy the guaranteed advertisers/subscriber list. JPN

3 b,c, & d With our school having implemented PBIS about 5 years ago, there is a PBIS "Blitz" each year at the beginning of the year. All of the sixth graders attend, as well as any new 7th or 8th graders. The Blitz involves teaching and showing what expected behaviors look like in our school. Our school has many kids move in each year during the school year. The video or videos would be a great way to show the new students what expected behaviors look like in media friendly way. That way the new students wouldn't have to wait until the following year to learn about our PBIS behaviors. Vicki

3b Teachers could use **Movie Maker** for advisory activities. Students could create movies that appropriately display the 6 pillars of character or what PBIS focus there is for the group. -Rod
