Google Apps for Education, branded SPPS Apps within St. Paul Public Schools offers a great deal of potential for student learning. Once students start using Google Apps they don't stop; students are the original early adopters of this flexible technology. Here's the basic idea:
Google Apps for Education (= SPPS Apps) is an online suite of tools, available
for staff and student use, that includes:
online collaborative documents
presentations
drawings
spreadsheets
forms (surveys)
sites
To become an expert on this particular technological skill, Google offers online training and individual certification for Google Apps for Education (= SPPS Apps). The certification course consists of six online training modules that can be taken at no cost and serves as a comprehensive look at the capabilities of Google Apps for Education. To become individually certified in Google Apps for Education you need to complete six 90 minute qualification exams based on the training modules. The cost of each qualification exam is $15.
