Nice basic guide to Google Drive and the toolbars of Docs, Sheets, Slides. I don't know how old it is. It mentions needing to download documents in order to edit them offline. If you have the Google Drive Chrome Web App installed and have enabled offline use on your personal computer, you can edit your documents offline without downloading, exept for sheets which is view only right now.

But when time comes to play the game, who can actually remember which rules go with which game? Students often feel the same way: What is the objective? … Via EDTECH@UTRGV

This is an interesting article that came to me by way of my friend and fellow technical communicator, Barrie Byron. Some of these metrics are ones I could've guessed, and some are surprises to me. It's an interesting read. I know for myself, I'd have a hard time adhering to these "rules". --techcommgeekmom

All of these make sense to me, and it's not limited to social media practices as well. Any professional correspondence should be approached this way. Good rules to go by here--they really are about the professional bottom-line and how to brand and present yourself and your company in the best light. --techcommgeekmom

Hi, thanks for checking out my first Scoop'it! Here is a way to upload PDFs to Scoopit. There is an easier way, I believe, by uploading a PDF to Scribd.com or Docshare.com and then get the link from there. What do you think?

"The sharing functionally that Google Drive offers to its users is really an amazing feature.It is ideal for sharing files and documents with students. What is even better is the fact that you can control who sees and edits your files with visibility options and access levels. In today's post, I am going to show you how to use these two features to share documents, files, and folders with your students." Via John Evans

"YouTube is a terrific resource for teachers looking for content to share with students. There are tons of videos that will reinforce key concepts and help kids get excited about what they are learning in the classroom. Since there are plenty of videos on YouTube that are not kid-friendly, YoouKids has developed an iPad app that helps teachers organize which clips they want to share with their students."

This article came to me by way of Nick Kellet of @Listly on Twitter. I have to agree with the reasons presented here, as they are the main reason that I keep comments open on TechCommGeekMom. I definitely am trying to start discussions, as long as they are respectfully done--opposing opinions are welcome as long as there can be an agreement to disagree during the discussion. --techcommgeekmom

Charlie Southwell (@charliesaidthat) brought this article to my attention. It's an interesting analysis on how to bring content strategy together. As Rahel Bailie posted on Charlie's Facebook account where he posted this, she noted that much of this article could be talked at even longer length about some of these components, and she's right. Take a look, and see what you think...I think much of it makes a lot of sense. --techcommgeekmom
