Google Teacher Academy - The shape of things to come

Created by Jeff Pickle (Beacon Technologies, Inc.) on February 22, 2007

Google faces a daunting task. How do you index 25 billion web pages when text pages are created from usually merely 10,000 words? Google is doing a pretty good job at search results since they now command by some estimates 70% of the searches done on the internet. Google is shaping the way we perceive and learn about the world. How can teachers become a part of this important event in human history? The Google Teacher Academy was implemented to help teachers learn more and help others become more productive with Google technologies. The first Google Teacher Academy in 2007 is now over but more are planned. Acceptance and completion of the Academy allows you to become a Google certified teacher and an educational leader in the shape of things to come.
