Thing # 12

Two google tools I like to use are Google Calendar and Google Translate.  These are the most useful in my day to day life.  My Google Calendar is pretty bare right now because I just created it but I can already see how useful it can be.  You can even link it to your phone so it'll alert you when you have an event coming up.  These is very convenient for teachers and students alike.  You can also share your calendar with anyone so if you have a hectic schedule it will be easier for people to see when you are available instead of constantly asking.  I currently use google translator for my Spanish class.  When I come across a word I don't know in the readings I use google translator to find out what it means.  It is quick and easy to use but do not try to translate whole sentences because they will not always come out in accurate Spanish but it is good for single words or phrases.
