Connection Agency Review

     Today I reviewed a global connection agency - The Google Teacher Academy.  According to the website, Google says, "The GTA is a FREE professional development experience designed to help primary and secondary educators from around the globe get the most from innovative technologies. Produced by CUE, each Academy is an intensive, two-day event during which participants get hands-on experience with Google's free products and other technologies, learn about innovative instructional strategies, receive resources to share with colleagues, and immerse themselves in a supportive community of educators making impact."  (Google, 2012).
     The academy takes place in Sydney, Australia.  Based on the information provided, this academy could be extremely helpful to educators wishing to further their knowledge in the area of technology.  The academy provides participants with the opportunity to attend live webinars, become more proficient at using apps, and even become a certified Google instructor.
