5. Google: The Literacy
Project
"When our students see the web as
something they can contribute to - rather
than just browse through - they're inspired
to think bigger, write more and film more."
826NYC students are currently making a
series of video tutorials for Google's
Literacy Project.
As well as video usage, The Literacy Project
allows users to access a multiplicity of
tools. These include:
• A comprehensive book and academic
paper search facility.
•Blogs and group discussions for sharing
literacy techniques.
•Google Earth, which will flag important
literacy projects across the globe.
Google began a mammoth project to
digitally scan all the world's books and
make them available online, an
admirable step towards increasing
access to literary resources across the
world - and perhaps the first step to
creating a viable global library
