ck it. I am hopeful that this will change at some point but for now Google Docs remains a resource for me only and hopefully I can continue using Schoology with my class.…

in a google site...the google site would have a page link to the wiki topic in the menu...then, on the page, there should be a link to the google doc for editing at the top and below that the embedded published doc...
...when implementing a wiki, you absolutely cannot have a kid attempt to edit the page and get rejected... kids and their parents won't accept it and it just gives them a great excuse for not buying in...also, kids should be able to edit the wiki whenever they want, thus no designated edit times...
...also, teachers shouldn't have to build so many wiki pages to get the workaround to accommodate multiple editors...
...a google doc allows approx. 15-20 concurrent editors (which most likely will never happen) and the doc auto-saves every few seconds...still, kids should mark their spots of entry because if 2 kids coincidentally click the same insertion point and begin typing, whoever clicked second will lose their edits...…
Wiki is like a 'doc', but it's not a doc; it's like an instant webpage. So depending on what benefits you are looking at, then Wiki can be of more benefits compared to Google docs.
t annual meeting in November with a colleague from California, and we are working on a plan for presentation via Google Docs. (Hey, now we don't even have to talk to each other!)
I haven't tried the others, so I would be interested to know more about the features that make them unique or different from Google Docs. (Maybe it is just that they are not owned by the Google Monster).
Thanks for sharing the resources.

g at my school about 2 years ago and I can't imagine not having it. I've written pretty extensively about its use in the classroom on my blog. Check out the posts on google docs here.…
esponse, and check boxes. You can make the survey on any topic your heart desires. I made mine on family, just basic questions about size of the family, number of brothers and sisters, traditions, etc. You get many responses, and they are all anonymous. The response are automatically put into a spreadsheet within google docs. It updates regularly, as you watch your progress. This would be a great tool for a classroom website, if you wanted to get parents' opinions on field trips or whatnot. The following is a link to the survey that I made: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1pd1OHrMDdKJwf9XaRGXjTnQTce_73MrFG8fWo-WWIYk/viewform?usp=send_form
Feel free to take it.…
