Students Choose Google Chrome for Sharing School Projects
This is a piece of news that would surely make Larry Page and Sergey Brin – the two celebrated founders of Google Inc. – truly happy. The students of English Honours stream at the Bandera High School are sharing projects, such as essays, through the online Google Chrome.
And the method seems to be quite successful if teacher Krista Errington is to be believed. At the March 18 meeting, she informed the Board of Trustees of the school that sharing projects over Chrome is leading to improved communication in class.
Picture – The Bandera High School
Students use their tablets and Chromebooks to write and exchange essays and also receive comments from their peers. This is also easier for them, as they can type the responses to questions rather than going for the old-fashioned and time-consuming way of writing the answers. As Errington said, the answers are emailed to the teachers concerned.
As the tablet is connected to the Internet, students may also easily conduct their research with the aid of the World Wide Web. They can also add images and videos to their projects.
The method also helps teachers as they no longer have to open books and stand up to lecture their pupils. Rather they can go for an online chat while they are working. They can also follow the changes that students make to their documents.
No wonder then that students are pretty excited about creating projects that can be easily shared with peers and teachers and getting instant responses to their assignments.
