Nerdy things to get you excited... |
Spotted this bit of news about Google+ today. Oh the possibilities for learning, collaborating and sharing...
Google+ Hangouts Get Apps, Including SlideShare and Diagram Tools: "After launching a Hangout, look for an "Apps" button at the top of your screen (and don't worry if you don't see it today or tomorrow—it is, like all things Google, "rolling out"). Click it, and you can choose to add another layer to your Hangout. One of the neatest tools is Cacoo, a free diagram/flowchart tool we've previously covered in its webapp form. As a Hangout tool, though, you can hear tips and approvals from your small crowd as you piece together your inter-connected charts. There's also a SlideShare app, so you can pull in presentations on the popular sharing site to show to the crowd. You could previously show Google Docs Presentations in a "Hangout with Extras," but SlideShare is a good, popular option to have handy."
This is making me think that in terms of a personalised learning environment... Google+ is starting to shape up...
