Todays activities

Today I found extremely useful as the back to basic session had us just look at our google DOCs and how to manage these files. Moreover how to use the tools that support these documents. I found the possibility to use voice recording to record text to be extremely useful! This training is something that I have wanted /needed for a long time! 

The presentations were great, the ideas all good and I will find it useful to use google keep as a way of saving details about sites and information. It good to know that I can sync  devices and accounts.
