Podcasts

I decided to visit Google Educast, part of the EdReach Network, because the school I am joining as a librarian this fall has partnered with Google Apps.  I wanted to see if there were some podcasts that regarded using the Apps in the classroom and good ways to learn about what was available!  

I watched/listened to the podcast "Teach Ideas, Not Apps" - http://edreach.us/2012/04/13/google-educast-043-teach-ideas-not-apps/.  They had the YouTube link with the video of them doing the podcast on the same page.

I liked that this episode included a list of some Google Apps for Education resources to help in classroom use.  Though it will take some time to learn about using Google Docs, Google Plus, Google Hangouts, and even Project Glass, I think this network will really help me to obtain the knowledge I need to acclimate myself over to using Google products educationally.
