Google Docs is a great tool if you are looking to get your students collaborating and working together. It is a free tool and you only need access to a GMAIL account. Your students do not need a GMAIL account to access your Google Docs.
In this video I show you a number of tried and tested techniques that I use when teaching with Google Docs. One of the biggest problem with Google Docs when setting up collaborative activities is that they quickly become disorganised but I show you a really useful technique to avoid this problem using tables.
I actually show you real examples in this video and I also show you techniques that we can use to summarise the contents of a Google Doc. It is vital that if we get students to work on a Google Doc that we then respond to their content. I show you a lovely technique using Vocaroo to respond to the content that the students produce.
You can also change access to a document in Google Docs and this can be really useful because you can control when the students can add to a document and then when you are ready , you can turn off the access or just allow them to comment.
I also use techniques with Google Docs where I get the students to respond to the comments that students have made. It doesn't always have to be the teacher who responds to the content the students add into the Google Doc. We can get the students to respond to each other and I will show you some really nice techniques that I often use.
This is a highly practical look at Google Docs with some step by step ideas that you can apply immediately into your teaching and learning They will help to make your sessions more student focused and more based around the students. You can apply these ideas to many different subject ideas, so if you teach languages or sciences or history etc, you will find these ideas very useful.
