The Google presentation was a great way to work together because we are not located at the same school. We created a presentation to share with parents at workshop on behavior modification. The presentation went well the only trouble we ran into was trying to print and save into PowerPoint. Creating and viewing the presentation was just fine. We left the presentation up on the Infant Toddler Website for other educators to share with parents in the future.

I created the Google Form for a Speech Language Pathologist that I work with. She was presenting a new testing protocal and wanted some feedback on her presentation and the the staffs comfort wit hth enew protocal. She gave me some ideas of the questions she wanted answered and I created a survey form which she added to and okayed. After she presented her information I emailed the attending staff with the survey and link so they could respond either way. I had a total of 13 responses (which was not everyone in attendence) and a few people responded more than once accidently.

__**Reflection**__ I found the Google Presentation and Google Form easy to use. The three biggest issues I found were 1)Staff reluctence to try something new 2)formatting issue between typically software and Google Docs and 3)Printing issues (things left out or cut off). I am looking ofrward to using both of these programs again in the future and expect that any issues I've encountered so far will either be fixed by Google (as they are always updating) or I will find a work around. The plain Google Document has actually already proven to be very useful in writing and sharing reports amongst staff(Not Shared here due to privacy issues).
