It seems more often than not, our plans change. Last week I had hoped to have my students adding contacts to their Google contacts. It took a little longer to get through some of our other lessons which is fine. We had some great conversations and students really seem to have an understanding of our school's intranet. I also feel they will do a great job troubleshooting any future problems with our workstations.
So this week we will move on to adding contacts to our Google accounts and adding events to our Google calendars. There are so many cool things we can do with our Google accounts. I'd like to share this video with you. Some of you have seen it, but it's worth watching a second time. I hope to be able to create presentations like this one, "Google Demo Slam: Epic Docs Animation." Now that you are excited about what you can do with one of your apps, Docs, let's take a look at your Contacts. You will find a "Google Directory" next to your workstation. You will need this resource for this activity. Please watch the screencast I created for you, "Adding Contacts to Your Google Account" and then add your team teachers to your contacts. You can go back and watch the video again if you get stuck. Be sure to type carefully.
Once you have finished adding contacts, you will work in your Calendar. You will find a list of events next to your workstation. Please watch the screencast I created, "Adding Events to Your Google Calendar," and then add the events to your calendar. Have some fun and customize your calendar. If you have any questions, just watch the video again. I hope you enjoy personalizing your Google accounts!!
