Google launched a new site today to help college students figure out the best ways to use Google Docs.
As with many folks I often wonder why Google doesn't take the next steps and put out a cloud based CMS?
Some of the suggestions on the site make a good deal of sense:
These include:
- "Brainstorm notes for group projects - With a record of everyone's thoughts in one place, no good idea gets left behind."
- "Need surveys for classes? - Send out a form to your email lists and get an organized spreadsheet of responses instantly."
- "Use forms for your student group or dorm - Collect RSVPs, organize your budget, or take collaborative meeting minutes."
How wonderful it would be if these tasks could be seamlessly embedded into the course design and learning experience.
