Google has recently launched a new website for Education, a “one-stop” shop of sorts with lots of information applicable to education. Check it out at http://www.google.com/edu/index.html.
A new booklet “Google in Education for Primary and Secondary Schools,” provides information on some of the programs for education that Google is involved in, such as the Google Doodle contests, the Google Science Fair and the Google Teacher Academy. Learn more at http://goo.gl/UARHc.
Google has also announced details for the Google Doodle Competition. Doodle 4 Google invites K-12 students to express the theme “If I could travel in time, I’d visit...” as creatively as possible using Google’s logo as their canvas. This year’s winner, along with having his or her doodle featured on the Google homepage for a day, will take home a $30,000 college scholarship and a $50,000 technology grant for their school. And as an added bonus, the winning Doodle will be featured on a special edition of Crayola’s 64-count box of crayons! All submissions must be postmarked by March 20 and received by March 23. Check out http://www.google.com/doodle4google for more details.
