Module Attitude
“Prior to the instructional modules, I
had no idea what ‘Google Apps’
were.”
“The instructional modules created a clear
step-by-step understanding in how to properly
create/use the Google Apps functions.”
“I want to switch from Lotus
Notes to Google right now.”
“I have always heard how cool Google Apps was, but
never had the chance to learn it- too busy! But this
presentation with the music, the movement, and how I
was walked through it, I learned how.”
