Week 3

This week I found our activities rather useful. Not that the last two weeks have not been, but I have yet to find something that I could directly use in my classroom. This week I found that something with the google docs spreadsheets. I use Xcell in my personal life for organizing my massive golf club collection, organizing expenses, and at my second job for managing shipping and sales. I am not an expert in this program, but I use it pretty well. I have used formulas before simpel A1+A2=A3 type stuff, so the recipe one was alittle more complex, but it worked. For me the google aplication worked just as well or even better given the web based format and easy access from anywhere. The only problem I had was that it didnt display the formula of the cell in a header at the top of the screen. Other than that I thought it was a good program and I will implement it in my own life and in the computer class that I am going to teach next fall. I hope this marks the beginning of some really useful technology tools!
