Hi Guys. I am really jealous about your access to Google seminars. I don't think we will see any here (Tasmania, Australia) any time soon! I am also interested in what people are doing with the various Google tools. I know some schools who are using Google Sketchup in their Multimedia courses.

I'm big time, jealous. We have a Google facility here in Phoenix and recently had some Google employees come speak to our local Ed Tech group. I'm hoping someday they will offer the program here in Arizona. I'd certainly apply (probably 3 or 4 times :) ) - what an opportunity!<br />
<br />
@Kevin - I would love to hear about what and how some people are using the different Google tools (Google earth, Sketchup, even Docs and Spreadsheets). I would also love to hear what else they tossed out at you guys.

I was at the NYC Google Teacher Academy and it was the most incredible PD event I've ever attended as a teacher.<br />
<br />
I nearly DID NOT apply because of the video requirement - in the end, I was not happy with what I came up with (it didn't focus on the kids - couldn't get permission in time) but it got the job done.<br />
<br />
Sharon I'd love to connect you with some folks and resources regarding Google tools - I'm co-presenting a similar presentation in May with a fellow GCT. Shoot me an email! I'm kjarrett…

I don't know about the tutorial, but just last month I did this for the first time. <br />
<br />
1. I used a friend's digital video camera, then hooked it up via USB to my computer, and in Microsoft Movie Maker was easily able to edit.<br />
<br />
2. I'm wondering if you couldn't just get an inexpensive webcam and go to a flash website that records video messages...?

Thanks for the encouragement Steve...I am percolating an idea. I have a steep learning curve to overcome...I do not own a video camera and I have never used movie maker.<br />
Are there any online quick tutorials to help me out?

I know you can do this! Tell a story--something you are passionate about. You are good at that.

I am so excited... I satrted on the application! But then I got to the part about the video and I feel like our Jr High kids...that is like a deer in headlights. The 7th and 8th grade just did a "video' stlye presentaion ( one minute long) on their cultural background and it was tough for them...Now I have to make one ..yikes

This is so awesome and I would love to attend. It just irritates me that you actually have to attend sessions. With Google trying to be a leader in web 2.0, why would we have to attend in person? I guess I am just jealous. But we are getting a Google server farm close by, maybe they will hold a session for us in rural NC.
