Sharing Google Apps

Posted on November 19, 2010 by Scott S. Floyd, M.Ed.

Recently I was asked to share how White Oak ISD utilizes Google Apps with staff and students. The video below is a portion of the 60 minute presentation at the Tech Forum Southwest conference in Bastrop, TX.

Presenting what we know and do in White Oak is a valuable tool for me as an educator. We always want our students to be successful and being confident in front of a large group is one of the skills they need for the future. Practicing this ourselves makes us better teachers and learners.
