I chose to use two very useful google tools that will continue to be used throughout college and in my classroom later. The first thing that I played with was the Google Translate. I find this useful because I am looking to teach in a Title I school system. In most of these systems there are students that can not speak any, or very little English. This tool will help me to communiciate with these English Language Learner students until they can grasp the concept of our language. The other google tool I found useful was the Google Calender that I created. In my calender I have daily activities that I need to accomplish or everyday appointments that I may have. I'm the type of person that will forget their head if it isn't attached to their body. Up until I discovered this tool, I would write everything on post-it notes and hope that Iwould see them on time. I really like the fact that this calender sends you an email 30 minutes before the scheduled times. It will also send an alert to a smartphone which is a life saver. This calender will benefit me in my educational career simply by reminding me of meetings or appointments that I may have. These are two great tools!
Halfway done,

Mr. Morris, you have sold me on Google Calender. I believe I might just make myself one of those. I do try and use calenders, sometimes to many different ones. So I should try just using Google Calender? I think this would allow me to be more organized and less confused. Thanks.
