Gap
The Google Apps Suite was recently adopted by RHHS (Fall 2011). All faculty are proficient with the use of the e-mail app; however participants significantly vary in their understanding and ability to use many of the other productivity apps available, including Google Docs, Google Groups, Google Sites, Blogger, Google Calendar, etc., and their collaborative capabilities. =Topic: What will be the topic of your workshop?
