This new summer class in St. Louis, Missouri, at Cooperating School Districts, is brought to you by the producers of the Google Teacher Academy, is a Google Workshop for Educators (GWE).
This class, taught by Google Certified Teachers Bill Bass, Cindy Lane, and Stephanie Madlinger, will introduce participants to innovative ways Google tools can be used in education. This full day of fast-paced presentations and hands-on activities includes experience with advanced search techniques, collaborative web-based applications, and inspirational instructional strategies. Google Certified Teachers share ways they’ve implemented tools such as Google Docs, Google Earth, Google Sites, and more. Participants who complete the event are given access to the Google Workshops for Educators Network (GWEN), an online community focused on supporting educators as they learn more about the power of Google to drive student learning.
(One Graduate Credit is available at an additional cost!)

Awesome. I was wondering if there were trainings out there to help educators do this. Google has so many great tools to use to help communicate, education, collaborate, etc, etc. I love Google Docs.
Participants will be inspired and motivated to use these Google Tools in their classroom and in professional development opportunities. These time-saving, easy to use resources will both change and enhance your lessons and workshops. The Google Workshops for Educators Network (GWEN) is a huge asset to add to your professional learning network. Participants will love the fact that they can learn & share beyond the days event.
Teachers who are interested in using tools like Google Docs and Google Earth as well as a bunch of little tidbits throughout the day. Participants will experience a wide variety of tools that they can use in their classrooms with their students.
Looking forward to Google Academy – just haven’t had time @ NECC to catch all the Google workshops!
So much good stuff to see/do at NECC! Enjoy.
