Google for Educators
We've all used Google. But did you know that Google is more than just a search engine? Google has lots of neat tools that you can learn about by visiting the Google for Educators site. There's Google Earth, Docs and Spreadsheets (think Word and Excel online -- and free!), and a host of other cool tools.

So, go to Google for Educators:

...you'll find a teacher's guide to Google products, including basic information about each tool, examples of how educators are using them, and lesson ideas. You'll also find lesson plans and videos from our partners at Discovery Education focusing on two of our most popular teaching tools: Google Earth and Google SketchUp.
