Google docs
These exercises are great - I had never really understood how a google doc differed from my docs until I began working on our step #2. I'm still not certain my doc is working quite the way I expected, but I did create and send a google doc to coordinate responses regarding the best time for a department meeting. The process made me realize that I need more practice with google simply to eliminate insecurities about mechanical workings. Some of my colleagues were not very familiar with google docs - their insecurities offered me an insight into how students might feel/behave when working with new web applications.

And it is the insecurity that stands in the way because once you do it a few times the anxiety leaves and then you get to the benefits or at least the opportunity to judge the product on its merits rather than preconceived level of difficulty...though it will take more than 13 weeks to get me past programming remote controls and vcr's anything with buttons...keys, I can handle but buttons that is a different subject;-)
