Google Documents ®, Google Spreadsheets ®, and Google Presentations ® form a core set of educational tools.  One of the best parts is that they are free.  Three workstations will be provided.  Sit down and complete one or more of the activities.  A document, presentation and a spreadsheet on the respective station will be open for you to edit.  The instructions are in the document, presentation or spreadsheet.

If you bring a mybvc.ca or gmail account, you can sign in and share the document you are working on with colleagues.

Afterwards, be sure to share ideas and ask questions.  Visit our discussion group to carry on the conversation.
