Google+ aims to make sharing on the web more like sharing in real life. Check out Circles, Events and Hangouts.  Google+ could only be used with a personal Google (@gmail.com) accounts. But now, Google+ can now be activated for Google Apps for Education users!  This will allow teachers and students in your school to use all of the Google+ features.  This means screen sharing and hangouts to host online collaboration or online tutoring sessions.  If you haven’t experienced Google+ I highly recommend you do so.  There is a lot of new and engaging ways to connect with your students.
