[Mark Wagner, Ph.D.]

Today several CLMS and CLHS members participated in a webinar about "Using Google Docs to Support Your PLC." The webinar resources can be accessed here: http://plcweb.wikispaces.com/

This discussion is meant as the reflection activity for participants in the webinar, but all are welcome to join. Simply reply to this post and answer the question in the title: How Can You Use Google Docs to Support Your PLC?

If you participated in the webinar, consider specific things you learned that you would like to implement in the coming school year. What are your next steps? And what do you still have to learn?

Please reply to your colleagues' posts as well so that the discussion here can grow. :)

I have used Google Docs spreadsheets for a directory of people and to collect information. Recently, Scott McLeod hosted the Leadership 2009 blog-a-thon (link) and people input their blog in a Google Docs spreadsheet (link),

I have used Google Doc spreadsheet directories to find educators in Twitter and Plurk. I use it to collect words of wisdom on how to improve education (link)

Your PLC's could submit agendas for all meetings. They could set up their SMART Goals worksheets, CAMP protocols, etc.
You can also use them to create common assessments.
