Google 20

At the AITP National Collegiate Conference, I attended a session on creating collaborative online communities for students.  One idea was hiring student bloggers to introduce people to technologies and encourage careers for women and minority groups in the IT area.  They showed a video (which I haven’t found yet, but I’m still looking) about women working at Google.  One of the things that I was impressed by was the Google 20 where 20% of your time could be spent working on YOUR project.  I think that could be applied to a lot of things including the classroom!
