T4E Conference

Google's Buzz feature came on-line recently, then I received a call for paper from the technology for education 2010 international conference. It immediately struck me that the Google Buzz could be a huge help in actually teaching a class very conveniently. particularly in institutes of higher learning, technology & engineering and MBA schools. Most comm0n scenario is a campus wide Wi-Fi, students with laptops and with the Buzz, I can be in constant touch with my students. one could do this with facebook or twitter too. But this more general, besides announcements, I can direct them to specific slide shows at connected web sites, I can have a forum like situation where one student asking a question and the answer to that are visible to rest of the community. May be, I'll write a paper on that!
