First of all, I really liked the Cloud Academy idea. I learned a lot about calendar and I appreciated being able to do this at my own pace. I just completed the Cloud Academy:
Calendars and GMail Course and I'm excited to explore calendars more. I know it will be helpful to use once the district moves everyone to google in December. I can imagine my team using it to help schedule meetings together, as well as being useful for district meetings.
As far as using calendars with my students I'm still not sure how I would use this in my classroom. I know I would use this to help me be more efficient with my time and to schedule events with other adults, but I think with 3rd graders using a calendar (beyond some basic calendar skills) really isn't the best use of instructional time.
Adam, you are the first to complete a course. Yay! I am glad that you like the format. I am excited to see how teachers will share here.
