Online Google PD Opportunity

Thanks, Stephanie, for passing this along.

Simple K-12, an organization that markets teaching resources and professional development, is holding a free, online Google Apps training targeted to teachers this Saturday, 21 November from 10:00 to 3:30.



The session topics look pretty interesting; this is great opportunity for those who are 'beginner' users. Because it's online, you can pick the ones you think most useful, skip the rest. What's particularly useful with sessions like this is how the presenter will explain the application in the context of a classroom setting and not just some generic "this button does .... ".
