Again, Google leaves me surprised! I had no idea that so many tools were available through Google and that you could create and customize your own. I decided to create an iGoogle Homepage where I chose my own gadgets and interests to have available and posted on my page. I can keep up to date on what I am interested in, create and follow a checklist, add games, and many other fun and interesting things. I believe this could be useful in the classroom because either you can create a page for the entire class and make it available to all of your students. It can be also be used for students to create their own and offer a way for them to learn organization skills.
Next, I decided to create a Google Calendar, which was a very useful tool because it was simple and easy to use. Again, this could be used for the entire class as a way for students to keep up with a teacher's assignments. Students can also access it at home to view your lesson plans and discover what they missed in class. Additionally, they can create their own which will also help them to develop organizational skills.
