NECC Presentations

Many of you who joined us at our teaching theater at the National Educational Computing Conference (NECC) in Atlanta in June 2007 asked us to post the presentations given by our Google Certified Teachers.  And even if you didn't catch the presentations live, we think they're almost as helpful when you review them on your own.  Here are the presentations and materials which accompany them: 

Cheryl Davis:
Gone Google: Integrating project-based lessons with Google tools
Gone Google Podcasts
Gone Google Handouts and Sample Lessons

Esther Wojcicki:
Docs and Spreadsheets in the Classroom [PDF]

Jerome Burg:
