Abstract

The purpose of this session will be to share specific examples of how Google Documents can be used to support communication and collaboration in both traditional and online learning environments. The session will showcase practical strategies for using Google Documents that teacher educators can use in their higher education classrooms. Likewise, the transferability of such projects will be emphasized to showcase how teacher educators can help their Education majors identify ways in which Google Documents can be used in K-12 classrooms. Given the collaborative functionality of Google Documents, it is a technological tool that supports Constructivist learning theory and updates traditional educational strategies to the 21st Century, technology-rich, educational world.
