PE3_Googledocs Drawings

I was the most excited to explore this portion of Google docs.  Not only because I am an art teacher and enjoy drawing, but mostly because I think I can use this in my classroom.  After playing with the features it seems very similar to the basic drawing tools in word.  The simplicity of it however is a good thing.  I've been allowing my students that finish up their work early to play an art game called add on.  With this game my students start with a very basic shape and add on lines one at a time to create a recognizable object.  With this program I can set up students on the computers to battle one another, or I can use this to come up with new starting drawings for those designs.  Fun to explore further.

  1. I can see my students really liking this. I think I'll try it out in my Computer Related Technology class and see what responses I get.
