Google Docs in the Classroom
Google.docs offers students and instructors accessibility to documents over the internet eliminating the need of sending multiple revisions of the same document through email.

online session Connections in Online Classes
Session leader Laura Paciorek writes: Since I started teaching online, I have been exploring the idea of how to connect with students in an online environment. There are six types of connections that I strive to facilitate in my classes. This workshop will highlight those six types of connections and some strategies that may work in fostering those connections. A brief literature review about connections in online courses will be shared as a part of this presentation. Elluminate Recording is here and PowerPoint slides are here. Help us out!
