Thing 12

After exploring some different things Google has to offer, I took a further look into Google translate. This is a really great tool for teachers because you could show your students what their sentence would look like in a different language. Below is an example after I typed in "My major is elementary education."

Language		Translated query
French		Mon majeur est l'éducation élémentaire.
Spanish		Mi especialidad es la educación primaria.
Italian		Il mio principale è l'educazione elementare.

The next option I am exploring is Google Calendar, but something is wrong with the server and is down temporarily. https://www.google.com/calendar
One thing I like about Google Calendar is that I can use my existing Google account and do not have to create a new username and password. Even though I have not thoroughly explored it yet, this tool would be great for teachers to keep track of everything and have access to it from anywhere. A lot of times I leave my calendar at home and then I don't have it when I need it, but if teachers used this then they don't have to worry about leaving it at school. Google will greatly help teachers in explaining new terms or languages and keep teachers on track with their schedules.
