Thing #12

I chose to explore Google Alerts and Google Translate.  I have used Good Translate in the past and I am familiar with the tool, therefore, it was pretty easy.  This is obviously useful for students taking a foreign language, although most teachers warn against it.  I agree.  However, it would be useful as a starting point.  I believe Google Alerts would be an awesome tool in the classroom.  Things you've researched and perhaps couldn't find could be found by Google at a later point and can be made known to you.  I think that saves time and makes it a lot easier for students and teachers alike.
