google_docs_logoI was working in Google Docs today when I decided to take a look at some of the templates that are available. There are a number of categories from which to choose:

  • Albums & Flipbooks
  • Business
  • Calculators
  • Calendars & Schedules
  • Cards & Certificates
  • Holiday
  • Labels & Business Cards
  • Legal
  • Letters & Faxes
  • Miscellaneous
  • Personal Finance
  • Presentation Designs
  • Resumes & Cover Letters
  • Statistics
  • Students & Teachers

I browsed the Students & Teachers category and found templates for research papers, lesson plans, website evaluation forms, and more. Worth a look and you might find something that would save you some time or give you an idea for the classroom.

A Thin Line is an MTV campaign developed to "empower individuals to identify, respond to, and stop the spread of digital abuse". The campaign is built on the understanding that there's a "thin line" between what may begin as a harmless joke and result in  something that could have a serious impact on someone's life.
