Homework 3.21 Google Docs Reflection

I have been using Google Documents for probably over a year now, so I have quite a bit of experience using this type of technology. It was different however working with a partner on a document. This experience was quite helpful in learning to collaborate with someone through the use of technology. I am able to use Google Documents within my classroom to create documents or save documents outside of class and bring them and use them within the class. Unfortunately, I have to print everything that I use, but hopefully people will come to the realization of the benefits of going paperless, and having the technologies at hand for students' to use on a daily basis, even at a school like the one I am at. There is no reason with the amount of money that is out there that student's can't have the access to the most modern technologies that our society has to offer. This is the only true way that they will learn in our globalized society.

Homework 3.13

1) I learned the importance of keeping your web browser updated and current to help prevent phishing and malware.

2) I could potentially use this within my classroom to be able to use web browsers to do research and background information on slavery because we are reading a book on slavery currently in the English class I am teaching.
