http://coolcatteacher.blogspot.com/2012/03/why-schools-shouldnt-use-google-forms.html Last week was a mess largely because the form we set up for teachers to share their information with us for the Eracism project was pulled down by Google with no warning. All of the data we collected to set up the voicethreads you now see at http://eracism.flatclassroomproject.org was lost with no hope of return.
