Week 2 - Google Docs

I found Google Docs difficult to use. While it is a simpler version of Microsoft Word, it was hard to cut and paste the differnt webpages that I found.  It would paste in an entire table and when I tried to delete the unnecessary information it would delete everything. I also had trouble trying to enter new information after I pasted.  It would put the cursor in one place on the page but it would type in another location. I eventually had to do my entire project in Word and copy and paste it into Google Docs.  Other than that issue, I think Google Docs is a good tool.  It is more convenient to share documents from there rather than attach a document to an email.  It also saves paper where as a hard copy wastes it.  I think that this would be a good tool to use with my students to hand in homework and other such things.  I would only use it for simple assignments, however.  I do not think I would require my students to use Google Docs for any project like this one that involved copying and pasting.  It just caused too many problems for me.  Overall, Google Docs is a useful tool.  I think I will need to work with it and get more used to it before I introduce it to my students, however.
