1. Using Google+ for writing science reports. 17/19 were able to set up an account and join the community! 5/19 used the Google+ document and “Shared Logbook”

2. What did I like about Google+? 10 say Nothing!! It was different. It was easy. Using shared doc’s and shared glossary. We all wrote the same thing in the book, and we didn’t use any real skills to do it. I felt more connected to the class. Like Facebook and Google images (communication), sounds nice! If someone did the work it was all there.

3. What I didn’t like about using Google+ 1 said “Nothing” : 6 said “Everything” Finding the document. People using inappropriately – deleting work in shared document. It was sometimes difficult to use / Very confusing. Too hard to use / Complicated, took too long to set up. That people could just not do the work, look at work & put on there. I don’t like the fact that my work posted online / I didn’t like putting my work up and having it as a thing.

4. What issues/problems did I encounter? None. Too many got confused. Unable to navigate around. People changing my answers / Sometimes people did delete stuff but not much or often / Sometimes people would change or correct my answers. The documents were sometimes hard to find an occasionally would not work. Only used it once, couldn’t log in after that / I couldn’t use it because it got disabled. We didn’t know where to put stuff. Things weren’t done properly. Slow laptop didn’t exactly help. Not having laptop at all times. Google+ WAS the problem.

5. What were the learning advantages? 6 said “Nothing” Teamwork / The class could work together more effectively. See how others viewed the results / We got to see what everyone else in the class thought about the experiment. You could see others work. You can type it! None, but the “Lazys”. Copying.
