Great Guide for Learning to Use Google Apps

As we all know, next year the School District of New London will be moving to Google Apps for Education.  While Google Docs will look as familiar as Microsoft Word to most, Google Docs has the advantage of having its storage completely online and allowing for easy document sharing and collaboration.  You can even create quizzes using Google Forms and install a script called Flubaroo to automatically grade them. 

I know for some the whole idea of using Google Docs seems daunting and new.  Fortuantely Richard Byrne from Free Technology for Teachers has created an easy-to-follow guide for teachers new to Google Docs.  You'll learn not only how to create documents, but also how to design presentations and use forms to never grade another multiple choice quiz again!
