Using Google Docs to Create ePortfolios and Other Files Helge Scherlund writes in his eLearning News Blog about using Google Docs for academic tasks.  He gives special attention to  Helen Barrett's extensive work with ePortfolios and her use of Google Docs.  He also cites several articles that provide getting started information for using Google Docs and illustrates how other free online Google tools (such as Picasa, Google Mail, etc.) can be integrated through Google Docs. Almost everyone uses the Google search engine, but other Google tools are less well known (although Google Scholar, Google Mail, and Google Maps are becoming more widely used). I recommend giving Google Docs a try; it makes document sharing and web publishing very convenient. ____JH ______ 9:04:23 PM    COMMENT []
