More Than Just Google Docs

Twitter lead me to a fantastic Powerpoint presentation today. 
32 Google Apps for the Classroom
It was fantastic! 







Here is a quick summary: 



GMail: huge inbox with search function: keep and find anything
Talk: IM and video chat. Invite a guest speaker into your class without the travel.
Groups: Let students easily and create and work in teams.
Calendar: create and share a classroom calendar with students and parents
Docs: create and share documents that can be used for peer editing and on-going teacher feedback
Forms: gather and analyze data for math, geography and science; create and mark online quizzes; gather student data.
Sites: allow students and teachers to create and manage their own websites
Video: use the power of video to teach
Postini: security and compliance solution.
