Project+Using+Google+Tools

The project is going to be using the widget on the "Cool Websites" link on the homepage of my wiki. Using the third widget on the page select a mathematician from the list. You will research their contribution to mathematics and make a connection to a real world application of that mathematics principle. Each student will write a paper 2-3 pages in length about their opinion of the work of their chosen mathematician and whether their work was a poisitve or negative contribution to human kind. This will be a group project and groups will be assigned in class the day before the project is officially assigned. As a group I want a presentation created, but a powerpoint won't do I would like the group to create a digital story using Photostory. This should be a very enticing thing where you are able to hear every member of the group contribute a voice to the presentation, talking about the contributions of the mathematican and finding images that capture what that mathematician was all about. In order to do this you will be using six different Google Tools. If you need a quick refresher over what Google Tools are visit [] and go over the tutorial. You will need to use all of the following Google Tools while creating the project: media type="custom" key="6130049"
 * media type="file" key="Photo Story example.wmv"Google Docs (you can use docs, presentations, etc.)example done using Mathematician Pythagoras.
 * Google Forms (creates the spreadsheet with compiled data from a survey) Have class take this survey before you present your mathematician.
 * Google Books / Scholar
 * Google Calendar
 * Knol
 * Google Videos
