The Benefits of copying other's work....

Have you ever worked in a group project where no one in the group could get together? Did it frustrate you to know end? Well then, I have a new solution for you! It is called google docs. This program is found on the Internet. It allows people to save a document on line and others can make comments and correct right on that document. This saves the problem of not getting the papers or even meeting together as a group. This program is great not only for students but also for teachers and principals. They can use technology to introduce to their students to different cultures in the United States and around the world. For more information on how google docs could affect teaching in schools and how it is affecting them already check out this link.

  1. hehe...nice addition with that 'funny version' of google docs. Did you notice though that at the end of it she wrote back to him and said, "Yes, but next time as me in person." Even though kids like technology and it is helpful it cannot replace the need for true relationships. It cannot replace intamacy. 'Chatting' cannot replace talking. There is good and bad. Google docs seems like one thing that could definately be useful though. Especially in high school or college classes.

  2. I would agree that was partly my reason for putting the funny video in there as well. To show how ironic we are as a society today.
