Participation: Google Calender

Before I did the Internet Communications assignment, I didn't know that there was an application called Google Calender. When I found out this was part of the assignment, I did it without thinking and spending much time realizing what a huge benefit this could be. Recently, I decided to check my gmail account to clean up the email that it had received and I found out that the Calender sends you reminders so that you don't forget about events coming up. This would be hugely beneficial in a class because it would allow students to remember things. I know I check my email regularly and will remember things that I am told over it more than I do if it is said in class. This would be a great tool to have students create so that they can remember big assignments for your class.
