Google Docs

By using Google Docs I was able to take my resume from last year and upload it to my Google Docs. Google Docs is very user friendly and allowed me to update my resume to reflect my current accomplishments. Looking at the NETS-T Standards this activity relates to a few of them. Model Digital Age Work and Learning: b. Google Docs would allow you to be able to collaborate with students, peers, parents and other community members to support student success. c. Google Docs gives you the ability to share publicly or keep private. For example if a student has misplaced the paper or it the child's parents are separated or whatever the situation may be, they are still able to access the paper without you having to reprint another one. Plus if it is the weekend or a long break there is no excuse for them not to be able to access it. Cloud computing refers to the use of the internet to store, manage, process and share data. Some advantages to this are: more mobile, able to access it from anywhere using a web browser, unlimited storage, no updates for the software and gives the ability for more storage space. With advantages comes disadvantages which are the security and privacy issues. To view my resume click here
