There are so many good things from Google. Check them out. One feature that I use often is the form features. I send out surveys and invitations. Responses feed into a spreadsheet. Delete the scoop?

UtellStory can be used for students to create and share short stories. Would be suited to students in Years 4-12. 
Katrina Elliott's curator insight,

UtellStory is a digital tool that allows students to create and share short stories. It allows students to embed into a blog or email. It provides the option to upload images, add text and audio to each slide. This program would be suitable for middle-upper years and provides oppertunities for students to capture and communicate findings or ideas through the use of digital tools (ACARA, 2012). It is more advanced and engaging than the usual powerpoint presentation.

I think students would find this tool very engaging and it is a great way to differentiate assessments allowing students a choice of presentation tools.

I started my blog using WordPress and I have found it a platform that makes it easy to own and publish your own content online.
It is the foundation to the success of this blog which currently receives over 300,000 hits per month.
If you’re looking for an easy way to create a web presence and start sharing your ideas online, the best way to do this is to create a blog. Millions of users around the world already express themselves and share their thoughts by means of their personal blogs.
The advantage of having your own WordPress blog that is self-hosted is that you own it.
It is good to have a Facebook “page” or a Tumblr blog but they are owned by someone else and you can have a web presence there but under their “Terms and Conditions” It is basically a rental.

Mind mapping is a method that works for quite a lot of people. Brain storming, idea mapping, thought generation, think tanks – call it what you will. Traditionally done on large pieces of paper, why not use your iPad to create mind maps? You could use these for your own purposes, or “convert” those large flip charts into a smaller, digital version. Via Baiba Svenca

Research shows that mind maps (graphic organizers) are effective during all stages of learning. You can use them as an introduction to a unit, during the unit for continued note taking, or at the conclusion as a formative assessment to make sure your students truly understand the material.

When it comes to our technology, that may mean cleaning out our files and folders, reviewing our native applications and deleting those going unused, or simply (and finally) getting to that elusive “inbox zero”.
