So this "Thing" was designed to help you explore Google and learn all the possibilities available with it. Luckily for me, I was already familiar with these tools and tricks and use them frequently. I have the Google Translate app on my phone and have used it numerous times. It is very helpful and handy for everyday situations. I also use Picasa Web Albums already, also for my phone. Pictures that I took with my older phones were automatically saved to those albums and are automatically uploaded onto my newest phone for me to have access to whenever needed so that I don't lose any old memories. Here's a link to Google Translate and here's a link to Picasa Web Album
I could use these tools for many things in the classroom. I could use Google Translate to translate documents that I find online that may not be in English or to translate homework and assignments for my ESL students. I can use Picasa Web Albums to save pictures I find or take of historic sites or locations and events to help them visualize subject material.
